    About This Guide This guide describes how to setup and use the Toshiba EX10-MML11 Modbus module. When used in a Modbus network, the EX10-MML11 module allows any Modbus master to write to/read from the registers in an EX100 or T2 PLC using standard Modbus RTU protocol.

    TPU245N-S T2N CPU, with Ethernet and Tosline S20 The ML11 Modbus module is also used to connect a T2 or EX100 PLC into the Toshiba ECBUS. The ECBUS allows the PLCs to share data with Toshiba’s EC300 series loop controllers. The ECBUS is a LAN (local area network) which allows multiple EC300s and T2/EX100 PLCs to share data.

  • Page 13: Modbus Data Types And T2 Register Mapping

    5.2. Modbus Data Types and T2 Register Mapping This table shows how the different Modbus data types are mapped into T2 registers. In other words, a Modbus master would reference the following Modbus register ranges to access the corresponding T2 PLC registers. For example, Modbus Holding Register 4352 will map to T2 register D000, and Input Register 0000 will map to XW00.
  • Page 14: Restricted Registers

    Modbus – T2 Address mapping Example: Input module (XW000) T2E CPU Modbus Module Modbus Address 30000 40001 44352 Note: When dealing with I/O registers, make sure that the Modbus master is attempting to access only the I/O points that physically exist in the T2 system. For example, Holding Register 0 (40000) does not exist in the above example because there is no YW000 in the T2 system.
  • Page 15: Modbus Module Setup

    The Toshiba Modbus module has been used reliably as a Modbus slave for several years. First it was used on Toshiba’s EX100 Series PLCs and now on the T2 Series PLCs. Before it can function as intended however, all the DIP switches must be properly set and all wiring connections must be correct.
  • Page 16 Transmission Rate (Baud Rate): Select the combination of the three switches "BR2", "BR1", and "BRO" for the desired communication speed. These are the 4th, 5th, and the 6th switches. Baud Rate 19200 9600 4800 2400 1200 RESERVED Page 10...
  • Page 17 Parity Check: Select the parity check as odd, even or none. Use switches 7 and 8 to set the parity. PARITY NONE EVEN ASY and DLY switches: The ASY and DLY switches are not used on the EX10-MML11, and should be set to the “Off”...

  • Page 20: Wiring Connection To The Modbus Module

    6.2. Wiring Connection to the Modbus Module Sometimes it is necessary to convert from the standard RS485 to RS232 for connection to a Personal Computer. The wiring between the Modbus module and the converter must be set as follows: RS485 Converter Note: Different RS485 converters have different connections.
