Serial Protocol Building Blocks
The following building blocks are used to describe the subnetwork communication.
Node
A node represents a single device on the subnetwork.
Each node can be associated with a number of transactions.
Nodes and Transactions
Transactions are based on standard Modbus RTU transactions (Modbus RTU serial protocol) or
transactions templates (Custom Request/Response or Produce/Consume serial protocol) and
define the data to be sent or received.
Each transaction has a number of parameters that need to be configured to define how data is
to be sent / received.
Frame Fields
The Frame editor is used to design custom transaction templates.
The Frame editor with Frame fields is available when either the Custom Request/Response or
Custom Produce/Consume serial protocol is enabled.
