The Vlinx Modbus Gateway Manager defaults to options
like “Network” and “I don’t know the IP of the device.” If
the defaults meet your needs you don’t
need to set or change them.
If you have completed the configuration, click Save to
save the configuration to the serial server. Allow 15
seconds for the Gateway to reboot.
Click “Connect.” You should see a list of all devices on
the network, including your new device. If you do not
see your new device, please refer to the Troubleshooting
tips. You may now log out.
