How do I put the Modbus registers into Babel Buster?
The first part of the location property, SCPTlocation, is used to identify the Modbus register. The use of the location string is defined as “…sets descriptive physical location information for the associated functional block…”. Modbus unit number and register number are regarded by Babel Buster as part of the physical characteristics that identify the location of the source or destination of the data. The location string is a simple ASCII string such as “5U40001@Room 214”. In this case, we are referring to Modbus unit 5, unsigned 16-bit, holding register #1, with a documentation label of “Room 214”. If using LonMaker, simply type in the entire string as shown in this example. If using the Control Solutions configuration tool, the register information is broken down into individual elements for convenience, then automatically assembled into a string when written to the Babel Buster.
