I/O Modbus Slave
UDP Unicast Example
For an example of the I/O UDP unicast, see the sample program,
ioudpbcast.c
, found on your CD-
ROM.
I/O Modbus Slave
If you have a Modbus serial or TCP application, it can access I/O connected to the IOLAN when the
I/O Global Modbus Slave is enabled. You must supply a unique UID for the IOLAN, as it will act as
a Modbus Slave.
There are three ways your Modbus Application can connect to the IOLAN to access I/O.
Modbus Serial Application Connected to the Serial Port
Your Modbus serial application can be connected right to the IOLAN serial port to access I/O.
