COM600 series, Version 5.1
Modbus Serial Slave (OPC) User's Manual
•
COM600F is a dedicated distribution automation controller unit that runs dis-
tributed grid and feeder applications for ANSI power networks and inherits all
core features of the COM600 series.
Functional overview
The Modbus protocol slave interface of COM600 enables master systems communicating
with Modbus protocol to:
•
receive data from P&C devices
•
deliver commands to P&C devices connected to the Gateway.
The Modbus slave is implemented as an OPC client, which transfers and converts data
between the Modbus slave protocol interface and the OPC servers of COM600. For more
information, see COM600 User's Manual.
The Modbus Serial Slave OPC Client is configured using SAB600. SAB600 can also
be used for diagnosing and controlling the operation of the Modbus Serial Slave OPC
Client. COM600 has a web server that can be used for remote diagnostic of the Gateway
including the Modbus Serial Slave OPC Client.
The Modbus Serial Slave OPC Client uses TCP/IP communication over the Serial
interface. Before you can start using the Modbus Serial Slave OPC Client, configure at
least one OPC server to provide access to the process devices. In this user's manual, the
term "Modbus Serial IED" is used for a virtual station in COM600 representing the slave
stations visible to the Modbus master system.

•
OPC Data Access Client v. 1.0/2.0 for accessing data from the OPC servers
