Temperature Regulator - Modbus RTU Use Case


In this use case we use the Communicator to enable data exchange between an Temperature Regulator and a PLC.

The use case describes how to map the communication in the Communicator.

The Temperature Regulator is connected to the serial subnetwork via a custom RS-232 protocol.

The PLC is connected to an EtherNet/IP network (high level network).
