4.2 Verify Slave Communications
For verifying the communications to the module as a Slave you can monitor the
STATUS tags under the PRTXERRS section.
Below is an example.
The REQUESTS field shows the number of request messages sent to the module
as a Slave. The RESPONSES field shows how many times the module has
responded to a request message from the Modbus Master.
4.2.1 MVI56E-MCM Status Data Definition as a Slave
This section contains a description of the members present in the MCM.STATUS
object. This data is transferred from the module to the processor as part of each
read block using the module's input image. Sample Ladder Logic will copy this
information from the LOCAL: X: I.DATA {OFFSET} tag into the MCM.STATUS
array.
This value is incremented each time a complete program
cycle occurs in the module.
These two registers contain the product code of "MCM".
These two registers contain the product version for the
current running software.
These two registers contain the month and year values for
the program operating system.
These two registers contain the run number value for the
currently running software.
