Section 9. Modbus Configuration Files
Whenever a Modbus communication task starts, it is associated with a Modbus
configuration file (mbxxxx.txt). This file defines the map that links Modbus addresses to
FloBoss
S600+ database points.
All configuration files are ASCII text files which may be created manually if required.
However, Config600 software program includes Modbus configuration file generators for
most common applications. Always use these file generators. You can then edit the
generated files using either the Config600 Modbus editor or a text editor (such as
Notepad). Refer to the Chapter 14 of the Config600™ Configuration Software User Manual
(part D301220X412) for more information on the Modbus editor.
There are two basic file types, master and slave. Both share many common features since
the slave configuration file is a subset of the master configuration file. The # symbol is
used to indicate a comment. When a line is read, any characters following a # symbol are
ignored. The overall layout of the configuration files depends on whether the file is for
master or slave use:
