The Modbus-TCP client for PLC, the MEWTOCOL client for PLC and the
IEC60870 function use the full 3-pin RS232C bandwidth. Other functions
are delayed. Enter high timeout values whenever these functions are used.
Alternatives for these functions (except IEC60870) are: Modbus-TCP client
gateway for any Modbus RTU master or MEWTOCOL client via 9-pin
RS232C.
9-pin RS232C connection is connected with any unit (also PLC, GT
panel...)
Preset TCP/IP port number 9095 (server or client)
Only one client possible (TCP/IP or UDP/IP)
Arbitrary protocols (also MEWTOCOL) possible
Depending on the PLC interface setting, communication with the PLC is
carried out via the USB port of the FP Web expansion unit
If the PLC interface is set to RS232C or RS485, the MEWTOCOL/GT
(USB host) port can be used additionally for communication with a PLC
or GT panel connected via the USB host port ot the FP Web expansion
unit
Up to 10 clients possible (TCP/IP)
MEWTOCOL/GT protocol for data and program exchange
Preset TCP/IP port number 9096 (server)
If the PPP server or Internet e-mail of the FP Web-Server is active and a
modem is connected to the 9-pin RS232C, transparent communication
is not possible because the 9-pin RS232C connector is busy.
The current FP Web-Server firmware implementation supports up to ten
clients for FP-WEB2, i.e. up to ten computers can communicate with a
PLC! However, be aware that only one client is allowed to use the
MEWTOCOL monitor command! Standard MEWTOCOL commands and
MEWTOCOL program download commands can be used by all ten clients
at the same time.
This means that only one client is allowed to use FPWIN or PCWAY for
