  • TCP: IP address and port.

• Configuring a Modbus test locally using RTU (left) or TCP (right).

• Through kiconex, select the facility and for:
  • RTU: The port index and Modbus address.
  • TCP: IP address and port.

• Configuring a Modbus test remotely using RTU (left) or TCP (right).

Then, configure the request: Modbus register where the query starts, number of registers to query and Modbus function to be used. If the function is a write function, the “Value” field will be enabled to indicate the value to be written.
