Connection to multiple devices on Modbus TCP/IP

[qwideman]

I don't know very much VB at all. What would be required to make it possible to connect multiple Modbus Devices over Modbus TCP/IP? For example, having 2 pilot lamps addressed to separate PLCs.

Could a module be made that would support this?

I don't think I can write that code. 


Thank you,

You can add multiple driver instances to the form and give each one a unique IP address. In your control (e.g. pilot light), set the ComComponent property to the driver instance you want it to get the data from.

Thank you, I had done that, but I see now that my one device is offline.
I'll give it another shot once it comes back on.

Thank you, that works fine now. My mistake.
