Modbus Cache Table - Delta DVW-W1I2-E1 Series User Manual

MODBUS cache table

Since the transmission speed of Ethernet interface is faster than that of serial ports, therefore, when Ethernet
devices send requests to serial devices, more time is required for waiting serial port data. MODBUS cache
table provides PLCs with relevant configuration information (e.g. station ID, MODBUS IP). The DVW device
can send request to receive serial port device data based on prior MODBUS cache table. When Ethernet
devices requests for transmission to DVW device, DVW can immediately respond to data. Because DVW has
already receive the data in advance, so it does not need to transfer the requests to serial devices and the
function can also be used in MODBUS ASCII/RTU slave mode.
