We've demonstrated Modbus RTU & Modbus TCP functionality in IEC-61131 before - it's a very popular video. In that session we gave you a ton of useful information - but we dealt strictly with Modbus integer (INT) data. Modbus devices often transmit DINT and REAL data values packed in a package of multiple integers. And
There are a wide variety of ways for your machine to communicate to the outside world. Wired Ethernet LANs, WiFi LANs and Cellular networks to name a few. But what if your machine is isolated in a location where none of those common options are available? What if your machine is mobile – and only
Communications is one of the strengths of the Horner OCS. Another strength is distributed control – where a complex control task can be modularized to provide efficiency and scalability in the application by utilizing multiple OCS controllers. But what communications architecture and which communications protocol(s) should you use? In this session we’ll dive into the
