PLC & Protocols

SIO/CN1

PLC

Modicon Modbus is used when QuickPanel is Master to MLP

Modicon Modbus Slave is used when QuickPanel is slave to MLP
Port

Electrical Format: RS-422/485 Full duplex
Baud rate, Data bits, Parity and Stop Bits to match the MLP configuration

Handshake: None
Protocol

PLC ID: Modbus address of the MLP

Tags

Analog points are read from the MLP as an integer value (16-bit).
MLP floating-point numbers are not supported by this interface.

Addressing

Registers are referenced as a type and offset. Below are examples for Input Registers and Output (Holding)
Registers.

IR002

ML to MSC SRWIN1

If connecting more than one slave to the QuickPanel, append an underscore and Modbus address to the tag.
Example:

QuickPanel is configured to access PLC ID 1
For MLP at address 2, with the same registers as above, the tags would be IR001_2, IR002_2,
OR001_2 and OR002_2.
