Quick Help
This page only applies if the local device is configured as a Master. Map
number simply tells you where you're at on the list of register maps.
Click "next" and "prev" to scroll through the list. To advance directly
to a specific map, enter the desired number in the "Showing" box,
then click Update. Maps
entered on this page only read data from remote devices. Go to the RTU
Write Map to write data to those devices. The full parameter set is
different for read versus write. An
abbreviated version of a list of maps is shown on this page. Any of the
parameters shown may be changed here and registered by clicking the
Update button. To view and/or modify the complete set of parameters,
click on the map number in the left most column. For
each remote register to be read, enter the register type, format,
number, and provide the RTU slave address, also referred to as
Remote Unit #. If register format is CHAR, you need to click on the map
number and set the string size on the expanded view of the map map. For
coils or discrete inputs, use INT-16 or UINT-16 for register format - in
this case, format only affects formatting of local register data. Selecting
"none" for remote type effectively deletes the map even though it will
still appear in the list until deleted. Unused maps at the end of the
list will always show none as the type. |
