The leader in industrial automation and control solutions

Introduction

All Maple Systems HMIs programmed with EBPro (EasyBuilder Pro), including every cMT X Series and cMT Series model, are compatible with Schneider Electric PowerLogic Modbus TCP/IP. Configure your Controller and HMI/cMT with the following parameters to establish reliable communication.

Supported Series: Schneider PowerLogic Modbus TCP/IP

NOTE: Use the driver “Schneider PowerLogic Modbus RTU” to access extra data types beyond standard Modbus types. Because 64-bit objects are not natively supported by numeric objects, use ASCII objects to display them.

You can treat Mod10_2 as any other normal address because it is also 32-bit data. However, when using ASCII types, be aware of the special addressing method and the length of memory allocation.

Addressing Method

It is necessary to add a suffix of 00. For example, to read register 1716 [Energy, Real Total] in PM800, address it as 171600.

Address dialog in EBpro showing PLC set to Schneider PowerLogic Modbus RTU, Device type UMod10_4_ASCII, Address 170600, Address format DDDDDDD range 100–6553500, and Length 10.

Length of Memory Allocation

When using ASCII, it is necessary to specify the length — that is, the number of word memory. Each WORD holds two characters. For example, a length of 10 allows a maximum of 20 characters for the object (including the negative sign). Adjust this parameter according to the expected data.
