Modbus channels are used to provide ClearSCADA with additional connection information, so that the server can successfully communicate with Modbus PLCs and Modbus Slaves.
Specify the features for each channel by using the fields on the Modbus Channel Form.
The Form has several tabs. This section explains the driver-specific fields on the:
- Channel tab (see Configure the Channel Properties)
- Primary Port and Secondary Port tabs (see Primary and Secondary Port Properties).
For information on common fields on these tabs, see Configuring Channels on Simple Drivers in the ClearSCADA Guide to Simple Drivers.
For information on the fields on other tabs, see Tabs That are Common to Many Configuration Forms in the ClearSCADA Guide to Simple Drivers.
