Could not read/write registers (Wago 750-880, Modbus)

Ignition

Hello,

I have a few tags in the Tags section of Ignition Designer. I can read physical I/O and read/write coils.
However, I am not able to read/write holding registers. For example, I want to read an integer variable that is declared in PLC program with address %MW0. According to Wago manual (p.58) this address corresponds to Modbus address 12288. I tried the following paths:

[Wago]HR12288 - invalid address
[Wago]HR768 - no result
[Wago]HR769 - no result
[Wago]C12289 - reading first bit

I would appreciate if you can provide some guidance on the issue.

Thanks.

Did you try HR12289?

Are there errors on the console or does the device just not respond?

Yes. In this case system marks tag with red and sets the value to null.

Sorry, my bad. HR12289 works. Thanks for your help :slight_smile:

If you find all your addresses are offset by 1 like this, you can try setting the “one-based addressing” advanced property for your device to false.
