4.9 - Internal Diagnostic Modbus Registers

There are a number of internal diagnostic registers that can be accessed via Modbus TCP/RTU that will help with
analysing and diagnosing the radio network. To access these register the Modbus Server will need to be enabled and a
Modbus Server address will need to be configured (See 3.14 -

“Modbus I/O Transfer” for details on how this is done).

After enabling the Modbus Client you can then access the following information by reading the corresponding Modbus
Address at the Server ID address.

Note:

‘wi0’ is the normal default interface. If more interfaces are added by entering in virtual WDS

connections (either Client or AP) in section 3.16 - Repeaters (WDS) then they will take on the next
available interface number i.e. wi1, wi2, etc

Wireless Adaptor (wi0) - Points to the starting register of the AP's
Station List. First interface (wi0) will always start at 5200 and
dynamically enter data depending on the number of STA’s. Remaining
interfaces (wi1-wi10) will be entered after wi0 data. Register 5023,
5033, etc will indicate starting location for each interface.
