The connection methods of communication lines are different in different system networking modes. 1.The temperature controller is connected to the main PLC module of MEGMEET. The user needs to use twisted pair to connect the RS485 communication terminal of MTC and the RS485 communication terminal of the main module (see the user manual of the relevant main module).
Page 23
Modbus and MCbus. The former as a general communication protocol, widely support a variety of system configuration; The latter, as a communication protocol for MEGMEET, is specially used for internal communication of MEGMEET series PLC systems. This chapter introduces MTC communication and networking based on two communication protocols.
Page 24
BFM address is 100, and the logical address of Modicon data is 4:101. 3.2 MCbus communication protocol MCbus communication protocol is a small PLC network protocol developed by MEGMEET. MTC USES MCbus communication protocol when matching with MEGMEET series PLC modules.

Note: 1. After the user completes the configuration of MTC and runs the MTC on power by using the MTC wizard Settings, the user can use the man-machine interface of any PLC that supports MEGMEET to configure and monitor the parameters of MTC. Please refer to the relevant manual of man-machine interface for details.
