Full Version: Reading EWON MODBUS

Good morning.

Within the framework of a project, we provided an ewon flexy 201. this flexy retrieves data from our PLCs. We then aggregated this data on a web page. No worries from this point of view.

But now, The customer wants to retrieve the Ewon data but in modbus TCP. (new customer requirement).

My question is:
The ewon has Modbus technology. Is it possible to read ewon data via a modbus request? using EWon in modbus slave ?

Is there a specific table?


Thanks in advance
Hi,

The Ewon Tags can be published in Modbus TCP (Not RTU).

 THank you simon.

But just about curiosity, you can read. But can you write on modbus ?
Yes, sure.
The publishing is a read/write publishing. So you can update Flexy tags in Modbus and therefore the new value is forwarded to the PLC using the PLC protocol (Ex : Modbus TCP -- Tags --- S7 protocol -- PLC)

OK
I keep this information in case of.
Thank you simon
