Remote Modbus/TCP Device Configuration Page (Continued)
If selected, will disable broadcasts to this remote device.
Note: If multiple remote devices are accessed through another gateway, then
this option must be selected for all remote devices configured to that
gateway to prevent broadcast messages from being sent to those devices.
This setting only applies to a Modbus message if the following two statements
are true:
• The Modbus message device ID has been aliased, or changed, as a result of
a corresponding Alias Device ID configuration via the Modbus Alias Id
Configuration page.
• A Remote Modbus/TCP Device configuration exists for the pre-aliased, or
original, device ID.
If selected and all requirements are true, then the Remote Device ID
configuration for the pre-aliased device ID will be applied to the Modbus
message. This includes the IP address/port, timeout and control flags.
If enabled, that Device ID or IDs are deleted when you click the Save button.
