Default Address

On this settings page, you can view the default Modbus address for all I/O devices. The page only displays the start address of each item. For example, if the DI Value starts from 10001, then the 1 st DI channel’s Modbus address is 10001 and the 2 nd DI is 10002.

ATTENTION

Disable the user-defined modbus addressing function if you are using the MXIO(.NET) library or Active OPC

Server to control or monitor the ioLogik E1500’s I/O Status.
