Hi Gambit,
Yes, I setup FX5 to be a modbus server, its easy.
But when I download to the Gx Simulator3 I cannot connect the FX5 using modbus.
I supposed that the simulator doens't support modbus but I don't find any documentation on this.
Hi,
I'm new to the Mitsubishi world, so may be anyone help me in a quick!
I need to test a my client with the Mitsubishi MODBUS tcp.
To do this I would like to avoid use a real plc and use the Gx Simulator3 that come with the Gx Works3.
The question is: the Gx Simulator3 is capable to simulate a MODBUS tcp module?
To be more specific I tried this:
- created a project in Gx Works3 with a FX5U CPU.
- configured the FX5U built-in ethernet module with IP address of the hosting pc (also tried 127.0.0.1 with no success).
- activated and configured the MODBUS muster to the built-in ethernet module.
- wrote a trivial ladder program with a 1 input and 1 coil.
I can download and run the project on the Gx Simulator3 but I cannot connect to tcp port 502 that I supposed opened by the MODBUS muster functionality of the build-in ethernet module.
Do anyone know if the Gx Simulator is able to simulate modbus tcp functionality?
Thanks in Advance
Luciano.
