I could really use some insight on a Red Lion project.
I have been reading and using YouTube and have actually made some progress. Right now I have comms from my UTM-S Transmitter to the Red Lion DSP communicating via RS485 where the DSP is the master. I believe I also have comms between the Red Lion DSP to the processor. I say I believe because the status light on the DSP enet port are working and I can ping the DSP if I plug into the switch in the cabinet that both devices are plugged into.
This is where my problem is now. I am not passing information. I believe that I linked my Holding Registers to my L5K files correctly. this is my first MODBUS experiance though and I am unsure. In the UTM-S transmitter manual there is a register map that says the Flow rate long integer is 40602-40603. 602 being the word high. I linked 40602 to a PLC integer tag and received no data. I then tried to link it to a plc DINT. NO data.
Please send any ideas my way.
