Connect Moxa iologikE1260 to Client Ignition Perspective

I want to establish a TCP/IP connection between my Moxa ioLogik E1260 module and Ignition to monitor and log temperatures.

I’ve noticed that when the Moxa establishes a connection with Ignition, the OPC tags do not appear. How should I create them? Is it possible to monitor the parameters without going through a PLC?

Thanks

Absolutely.

  1. Set the IP of the moxa. The default is 192.168.127.254. Change it to what you want to suit your Ignition network.

  2. Create a modbus TCP device in Ignition. In advanced settings, set this:

  3. Manualy create your tags. e.g. ns=1;s=[E1260_1]1.IRF1548

Adding on to Matrix_Engineering's comment, for more info on how to point the OPC item path of a tag to modbus addresses, refer to the manual

And welcome, by the way =)

As it is a float, it uses 2 registers per channel, so the next RTD will be 1550 address.
