MODBUS Server (Modbus RTU Slave) : HMI Setting

This document provides guidelines for connecting an HMI to a PLC using MODBUS RTU or TCP/IP protocols. Key settings include selecting the PLC type as MODBUS Server, setting the communication interface and port number, and configuring the device addresses that map PLC registers to function codes for reading and writing data. Wiring diagrams are also included for RS232, RS485, and Ethernet connections between the HMI and PLC.

Modbus Server UDP Protocol Setting:


MODBUS Server (Ethernet) supports UDP communication protocol. To use UDP mode,
go to [System Parameter Settings] in editing software, in [Device list] click [New], for [PLC
type] select “Modbus Server”, [PLC I/F] set to [Ethernet], and select [Use UDP (User
Datagram Protocol)] to finish setting.

Modbus Server Port No. can be changed by clicking [Settings].

Modbus Server Port No. can not be set identically to HMI Port No. When doing so, the
warning message below will be shown requesting users to change setting.

„ A maximum of 64 Clients can be connected simultaneously.


„ Modbus Server Port No. can’t be identical to HMI Port No.

Modbus Server TCP/IP Protocol Setting:


MODBUS Server (Ethernet) supports TCP/IP communication protocol. Go to [System
Parameter Settings] in editing software, in [Device list] click [New], for [PLC type] select
“Modbus Server”, [PLC I/F] set to [Ethernet] to finish setting.

For Modbus Server TCP/IP, HMI Port No. is the same as Modbus Server Port No. To
change Prot No. go to [System Parameter Settings] / [Model], the default Port No. is
“8000”, and it is allowed to change Modbus Server Port No. here.
