The
Modbus channel
is used to take data from a Modbusused to take data from a
Modbus-capable instrument via an Ethernet connection.A Logger Modbus Instrument needs
to first be created before the Modbus channel is created so that the instrument that was created
will show in the drop down list for the Modbus Instrument on the Modbus tab (similar to the
GSI/RS-232 channel).
Modbus instruments have
additional networking information
that needs to be known. You must
create an instance of the Modbus
instrument in the Logger
Channels editor before creating
the Modbus channels for that
instrument (This procedure
prevents the need to repeat entry
of the networking information
for each channel).
To create the instrument, go to
the Logger Channels editor,
select the data logger in the
tree diagram, and select
