MGate MB3000 Modbus Gateway User Manual
Verifying the Location of the Unit
If you are managing multiple MGate units, you may wonder if you are configuring the correct unit in MGate
Manager. You can select a unit in MGate Manager and click Locate to make the unit’s Ready LED blink for a
few seconds. This will tell you which physical unit corresponds with the unit that you have selected.
Monitoring Modbus Activity
For troubleshooting or management purposes, you can monitor the data passing through any MGate
MB3000 on the network. Data events will be logged as they pass through the gateway. Rather than simply
echoing the data, MGate Manager presents the data in an intelligent, easily-understood format, with clearly
designated fields including source, type, destination, contents, and more. Events can be filtered in different
ways, and the complete log can be saved to a file for later analysis.
