  • Page 20: Setting Software

    This section gives instructions on how to set IFD9506 by DCISoft and explanations on each setup page. IFD9506 is set by UDP port 20006; therefore, you have to be aware of the relevant settings of the firewall. See the explanations below on the software.

  • Page 21: Basic Settings

    The basic settings include parameters such as module name, network settings and serial communication. 1. Module name: There can be many IFD9506 modules on the network. Thus, you can set a module name for each module to identify the module when you need to use them.
  • Page 22 IFD9506. To see if your setting is correct, conduct bitwise AND operations between your IP and subnet mask and destination IP and subnet mask. If the two values obtained are the same, the two IPs are in the same subnet. The default subnet mask of IFD9506 is 255.255.255.0.

    1. Listen Port/Destination Port: Range: 1024 ~ 65535. If IFD9506 works in serial master mode, you should set its own listening port number which is used by Ethernet client/master to make the connection. If IFD9506 works in serial slave mode, you should set the IP address of Ethernet service /slave and the destination port number which is open to make the connection.

    The node address setting for IFD9506 must be different from any equipment of serial ports. And the data format and baud rate settings must keep the same as those of the equipment connected to the serial port RS-232 or RS-485.
  • Page 32 Therefore, the Modbus TCP instruction needs to correspond to the right node address of the equipment of the serial port. For example, if the station address of IFD9506 is 2 and the serial equipment is 3, IFD9506 may receive the following Modbus TCP instructions.

  • Page 33: Serial Slave Mode

    6.3 Serial Slave Mode As a serial slave, IFD9506 is connected to the serial master by RS-232 or RS-485 port and is connected to the Ethernet server/ slave by Ethernet port. The communication instruction is sent by the serial master and is transferred to the Ethernet by IFD9506. And then IFD9506 will be waiting for the response from the Ethernet server/ slave, and eventually send the response back to the serial master.

    It supports the User Define communication protocol only, but does not support the settings on the User Define page. IFD9506 transfers all data received, which equals no condition is specified and makes the judgment of the packet end based on 1.5 characters of time. At the beginning of communication, the Ethernet equipment must first establish the connection to IFD9506, and then IFD9506 uses the connection to forward the data received from the serial port.
  • Page 37 If the switching speed of RS-485 slave is not fast enough, the data packets transmitted by IFD9506 may be lost or the slave may not receive full data.

  • Page 38: Ethernet/Ip Communication

    (2) Explicit Message The Ethernet/ IP master can transmit the Modbus instruction to IFD9506 by placing it in an explicit message. Reading multiple devices and writing to a single device are supported. IFD9506 forwards the Modbus instruction to the serial slave and sends the response from the serial slave back to the Ethernet/ IP master.

  • Page 39: Ethernet/Ip Operation Through Implicit Message

    Set the parameters of IFD9506 with the rotary switches. Ensure that the data format and baud rate of IFD9506 are the same as those of the serial slave and the station address is different from that of the serial slave.
