Good Afternoon,
I'm still learning Ignition and I'm using a Modbus Device. I'm manually Specify Each Address, but I don't think I'm doing it correctly.
This is what I placed in the tag editor:
Name: Gateway
Data Type:
Integer
OPC Server: Ignition OPC UA Server
OPC Item Path: [PPS33LR]HRUS1.
Thanks,

You need to add the Modbus device in the gateway and then configure the addresses there as well
Try [PPS33LR]1.HRUS1
Since the docs say that the slave unit can be from 1-247, then Ignition's default slave ID of zero won't work. The above includes 1.
to specify slave unit #1.
No, you don't need to. The address mappings are entirely optional, and no longer recommended.

pturmel,
Thanks for your response. I was looking at the Modbus Slave. This is the information that it displayed.
I think it should be:
[PPS33LR]8.HRUS1

Makes sense. Are you sure odd parity is correct? The default for Modbus RTU is E-8-1, that is, even parity.
