Modbus TCP Server Settings Dialog

The Modbus TCP Server Settings dialog configures an In-Sight vision system to act as a Modbus/TCP server.

Modbus TCP Server Settings Dialog Controls

To display the Modbus TCP Server dialog, click Network Settings from the Sensor menu. From the Network Settings dialog, with the Modbus TCP Server option enabled, press the Settings button.

• Max Connections: Specifies the maximum number of simultaneous connections the vision system will support. (1 to 6 connections; default = 4)
• Idle Timeout: Specifies the amount of time since the last issued Modbus/TCP request was received by the server from a client before that session is declared as idle. (0 to 3600 seconds; default = 120 seconds) The Modbus/TCP server checks all connected sessions every 500ms to determine if any session idle time limits have been reached. For all idle sessions, the Modbus/TCP server issues a socket close command and reclaims any resources allocated to the idle session.
• Enable User Data Bypass: Check this checkbox to bypass the cached data and read the raw user data directly. By default, this setting is disabled.
