Parameter
Description
Name
This parameter allows you to assign a name for the device, which will be displayed in
the log messages.
IP Address
This is the IP address of the slave device. This will be used to open an Ethernet
connection to the device.
Enabled
This parameter gives you the ability to disable the device, in case of errors or
momentary problems, without having to change any of the other settings.
ID Number
This is the slave address which will be used when sending messages to the device. If
the slave device is another MultiLoad, this number must be equal to the RCU Address
of the slave MultiLoad. This parameter can be found in Configuration -> RCU General
Setup.
Protocol
This is the Modbus protocol that will be used. At the moment, only TCP/IP is supported.
32-bit Endian Word
Order
A 32-bit value in Modbus is actually two 16-bit values packaged together. This
parameter determines the order of which these two values are packed together.
For example:
We will use the value 65535. This is represented in hexadecimal as 0x0000FFFF (0000
is the first 16 bits, and FFFF is the second 16 bits).
Big Endian: Register X= 0x0000, Register X+1=0xFFFF.
Little Endian: Register X= 0xFFFF, Register X+ 1= 0x0000.
By default this parameter is disabled. Set this value based on however the slave device
expects the 32-bit Modbus values to be formatted.
Poll Time
This parameter determines how often the read commands will be sent to the slave
device. If this parameter is set to 0, then the MultiLoad will not send any read
commands.
Write Time
This parameter determines how often the write commands will be sent to the slave
device. If this parameter is set to 0, then the MultiLoad will ONLY send Write commands
if the parameter Write On State Change is enabled.
Write On State
Change
If this parameter is enabled, the MultiLoad will send the write command for a specific
value the instant it changes.
