Modbus TCP and RTU

Configure Modbus field communication with target-aware validation and commissioning checks.

Nodectra models Modbus through Connection → Device → Point.

Modbus TCP

Configure the network endpoint, timeout and polling behavior on the Connection. Configure unit/device address on the Device and register details on each Point.

Modbus RTU

RTU uses a physical serial interface, commonly isolated RS-485. Configure port, baud rate, parity, data bits and stop bits according to the complete bus. The target hardware profile must expose the requested serial capability.

Commissioning checklist

  • verify bus polarity, termination, bias and common reference;
  • ensure unique device addresses;
  • confirm register base convention and function code;
  • verify word/byte order for multi-register values;
  • validate scaling, unit and writable range;
  • test offline and recovery quality behavior;
  • prove actuator writes with safe field supervision.
