Modbus TCP data exchange (Ethernet connection)

This folder contains the source files for the demonstration project on binary exchange between two devices over the Modbus TCP protocol.

Both the master and slave stations are implemented in REXYGEN but any of them can be replaced by another device supporting the Modbus TCP protocol.

Prerequisites

  • REXYGEN Runtime Core and MbDrv modules must be installed and running on the individual devices to run the examples.

Running the examples

  • The *exec.mdl file is the project main file.
  • Open it with REXYGEN Studio, compile and download it to the target device.

Modbus registers##

Data out (from the master's point of view)

Register No. Meaning Data range
0 Unsigned integer 0 .. 65535
1 Signed integer -32768 .. 32767
2 Unsigned integer 0 .. 65535
3 Signed integer -32768 .. 32767
4-5 Floating-point number -3.4E+38 .. 3.4E+38
6-9 Double precision floating-point number -1.7E+308 .. 1.7E+308

Data in (from the master's point of view)

Register No. Meaning Data range
2048 Unsigned integer 0 .. 65535
2049 Signed integer -32768 .. 32767
2050 Unsigned integer 0 .. 65535
2051 Signed integer -32768 .. 32767
2052-2053 Floating-point number -3.4E+38 .. 3.4E+38
2054-2057 Double precision floating-point number -1.7E+308 .. 1.7E+308

Adding signals and changing Modbus register mapping

Go to Modbus driver configuration (MTM block in the master, MTS block in the slave) and press "Configure" for Modbus registers configuration. Make sure to read the Modbus driver documentation (see below).
