Full Version: Receiving Data from 2 Modbus Chains with 2 Serial Cards
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I have a flexy 201 with 2x serial cards inserted, each connecting a modbus RS485 chain (2 total). The Ewon seems to only be able to receive 1 of these chains at any one time, not both. I'm trying to have both of these chains/serial cards importing into the Ewon simultaneously. Are there any specific settings that need to be set to allow this?

Thanks
Indeed, this is a limitation "by design" we could say ;-)

A known work-around is to use an extra MOdbus IOServer I have developed in JAva. https://developer.ewon.biz/content/add-modbus-rtu
It is easy to install and setup the same way as the embedded IOServer (Tag address a bit different tough).
