Use Data Type Floats
The Modbus Gateway Slave Register Remapping provides an option to remap all registers to
32-bit floats. This allows the user to enter a register and its data type knowing that it will be
read from the gateway via Modbus as two 16-bit registers.
To use the floating-point remapping, select the ‘Use Data Type Float’ check box in the
lower right of the remap window. This will erase the current register remap in the
Gateway; the user
will be asked to confirm this action before proceeding.
For each even numbered register address in the remap table, enter the Slave ID, Register Address, and
select the data type. The data types are provided in a pull-down list. Click the ‘
Write to GW’ button
to
remap the register(s).

fields will automatically be filled in by the gateway once
the mapping is written to the gateway.
