Hi @pboyer ,
The device will be configured with transactions to send and receive data on the serial side. In generic mode these are separate transactions, Produce or consume. While in master mode the device is the “master” and always sends a message then looks for the corresponding message back.
A message consists of objects, either data objects that look at a memory address in the Linking device for the data or a constant that is a static byte or bytes with data predefined.
Is your end application going to be using hyperterminal or is this just for testing? Right now it looks like you have the anybus setup to cyclically send the 16 bytes out that are being written from the PLC. The log you shared shows you are mostly sending 0’s. The first message send a 0x0A (dec10) followed by 0’s and the second message you send a 3 and a 2 followed by 0’s. It is also in master mode but there is no response message setup.
A quick phone call might help with this. Can you call our support line @312-829-0601 and refer to this topic when asking for me (Deryck). If you are looking for a more in-depth training session or for us to setup the configuration we can also look into service hours.
