Introduction 39 1 Introduction 1.1 What is the Modbus Plus Driver? The Modicon Modbus Plus X-Link driver allows the X-Link to transfer data to or from devices on the Modicon Modbus Plus network.
Modbus Plus X-Link Driver User’s Guide 40 1.2 Why Do I Need This Manual? This manual describes the communication requirements and capabilities of the Modbus Plus driver, the configuration parameters for the driver and the mappings possible for the Modicon PLCs.
Introduction 41 1.3 How Do I Use This Manual? The following conventions will help you better understand and use the material in this manual. Text you type appears in Courier font. For example, “Type mkdir C:XLINK to make a new X-Link directory.” Menu Names are italicized.
Modbus Plus X-Link Driver User’s Guide 42 1.4 Where Can I Find More Help? If you have a question or problem that the manuals or on-line help do not address, you can contact X-Link Technical Support by mail, fax or email, or by phone during regular business hours (EST).
Communication 43 2 Communication Once configured, the X-Link emulates a station on the Modbus Plus network. It can send messages to other stations and receive messages from other stations. This section outlines the requirements and compatibilities of this communication.
Modbus Plus X-Link Driver User’s Guide 44 2.1 Requirements To communicate to the Modbus Plus network, the X-Link requires a Modicon SA85 card. The X-Link Modbus Plus driver supports either the redundant or non-redundant version of the SA85.
Configuration 45 3 Configuration When you download a driver to the X-Link, you must set configuration parameters to control the interface between the driver and the required hardware. This section details the configuration parameters for the Modbus Plus driver.
Modbus Plus X-Link Driver User’s Guide 46 3.1 Configuration Parameters The Modbus Plus driver is distributed in the file SA85.DRV. Once the SA85.DRV is loaded into the X -Link, the following parameters are required: Card Segment The memory address for the SA85 card.
Mappings 47 4 Mappings Once the X-Link has been loaded, you can create mappings to transfer data from one network to the other. This section outlines the mapping options supported by the Modbus Plus driver. For information on what mappings are or how they work, please refer to the X-Link User's Guide .
Modbus Plus X-Link Driver User’s Guide 48 4.1 Data Ty pes and Lengths The Modbus Plus Driver supports three X-Link data formats; Bits and Integers, as well as Floats.
Mappings 49 4.2 Source Accesses The Modbus Plus driver supports four possible source accesses. The first source defines a local address which allows any device on the Modbus Plus network to write the data to the X-Link. This type of source is ideal for data that changes infrequently, but must be forwarded immediately, such as errors or exceptions.
Modbus Plus X-Link Driver User’s Guide 50 4.3 Destination Accesses The Modbus Plus driver supports three possible destination accesses. The first destination defines a local address which allows any device on the Modbus Plus network to read the data from the X-Link.
Mappings 51 4.4 Local Addresses When a mapping is created which allows a PLC to access data within the X -Link, a local address dialog box must be completed. The information required to complete a local address definition is the class of data to access (Coils, Input Status, Input Registers or Holding Registers) and the offset into the data table.
Modbus Plus X-Link Driver User’s Guide 52 4.6 Status Counters The status counters are maintained within the Modbus Plus driver for logging events and errors. The Status menu allows you to monitor some of these counters. As well, the status counters can be accessed as a data source for mappings.
Troubleshooting 53 5 Troubleshooting If you cannot communicate with your X-Link, refer to the troubleshooting section in the X-Link User's Guide. If you can communicate with your X-Link, but cannot monitor the status of your Modbus Plus driver, you most likely have the memory address set incorrectly.
