I’m trying to collect data off of some modbus devices i can see the data in Modscan and the correct Holding Registers but can not seem to get the mapping correct in ignition what am i doing wrong here

I also have tried mapping the opc tag in multiple other formats and trying 0 based and 1 based addressing

[CTE6115]HRF130 and [CTE6115]HRF131

Your Modscan shows Device ID 1, while Ignition's addresses default to 0.

Try `[CTE6115]1.HRF130`

I think i found it needed to reverse the word order in the device configuration
