I am attempting to connect to a Advantage Temperature Control Unit that uses a Lantronix Modbus Serial to Modbus TCP Converter.
I have successfully configured the Lantronix unit and am able to ping it from my network.
I have the Red Lion unit on the network and it is currently configured to pass information between my PLC (Rockwell CompactLogix L36 processor) and device on BACnet (this is working with no issues).
I am trying to configure a third Network on the Red Lion to communicate to the Lantronix device but it does not seem to be communicating with it.
All IPs are pingable and it is a brand new closed network with nothing coming in outside the factory floor. Lantronix is set up as a Slave with Red Lion as the Master. For testing, I have a single tag configured to do a Read on one Internal Register (#1) and when I use a Watch Window and try to View Online I get an "n/a" for a value.
Any ideas from someone who has used the Red Lion Data Station Plus for Modbus Communications?
I am also taking suggestions for a decent (preferably free) Modbus testing software that I can use to either try to talk to this or to set it up as a Slave and try to get the DSP to talk to it.
Any advice is appreciated.
