2. Add ModbusTCP Target
A device where signals can be read from or written to is called a Target in hopit Edge.
To add a new Target, open the Targets
section in the hopit Edge web interface: https://localhost:5050/Targets
.
Enter a descriptive Name, select ModbusTcp
for the Target Type
and click Add
.
The new Target appears on the same page and can be configured now.
The Enabled
box must be checked and for Host
and Port
the IP-Address and the Port of the Server must be filled in. Then the Submit
button needs to be clicked.
If the connection is established successfully, the card on the hopit Edge home-screen at https://localhost:5050
turns green and says UP
.
If this is not the case, please look in the log at https://localhost:5050/Log
. If this didn't help, configure Debug
for the log level and disable and enable the Target again.
