Hi HMS support team,
We are trying to configure netbiter EC360 for production monitoring. It’s currently connected to a siemens S7-1500 plc over profinet interface.
It’s been running fine since 2019 for remote access side of things.
So since the netbiter does not support profinet for remote monitoring we bought a protocol converter gateway which converts profinet signals to modbus rs485 (2-wire)
Now we are happy with the protocol converter and we can view the conversion data dynamically over a web browser. So there’s no question about the data not being received by the EC360.
We cannot configure the EC360 to read the data available at the gateway.
Here’s a link to the gateway converter,
MOXA MGATE 5103
The gateway supports several protocols that the netbiter can support.
We tried 9600 8 EVEN 1 with slave address for gateway set to 1.
Netbiter being the modbus rtu master and gateway being the slave.
Now where is the data stored in the netbiter?
Apparently this is getting a bit more inconvenient to configure.
Please let us know the steps to configure the netbiter for modbus rtu 485-2wire master with gateway at slave address 1.
Data on the gateway is as follows.
Holding registers 4x0001 - 4x0064
Input registers 3x0001 - 3x0064
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
