Posted 8 Apr 2008 SLC 5/05's serial ports do not support MODBUS. You will need an additional piece of hardware. You could purchase a ML1100 and connect it's serial port to the CHILLER and use Modbus. Then pass the data from the ML1100 to the other processors via ethernet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
