The TCP1RS+ converter connects units that work with RS-485 serial communication to an
Ethernet network using the IP protocol.
Check ‘Manual Editor’ when this device is added or modified; the following dialog box will be
displayed:
• Name: Alphanumeric field that uniquely identifies the device throughout the program. There
are no two devices in the configuration with the same name.
• Description: Enter a brief description of the device using alphanumeric data.
• Converter address: Corresponds to the address the program uses to communicate with the
device. This parameter can be an IP address or a name. This address should not be confused
with the MAC address.
• Connection: Indicates whether the connection is UDP, TCP or Modbus TCP.
• Port: Corresponds to the communications port.
• Configuration port: Corresponds to the communications port the program uses to configure
the device. The default port is 2000.
Follow these steps so that the TCP1RS+ device can communicate through a router:
1 - In the ‘Address converter‘ field enter the router's IP address.
2 - In the ‘Port” field enter the communications port and redirect this port on the router to the
device's communications port.
3 - Redirect the configuration port on the router to port 2000 of the converter.
NOTE: For information on readdressing ports consult the router user manual.
• Parameters: Clicking on this button will open a dialogue box, where a number of parameters
of the device can be configured.
