Page 8: Chapter 1 Getting Started
Chapter 1 1. Getting Started The purpose of this chapter is to give a short description on how to install the X-gateway and get it up and running, transferring I/O data between Network 1 (the controlling network, where the X-gateway acts as a server) and Network 2 (the controlled network, where the X-gateway acts as a client). -
Page 9: Anybus X-Gateway Modbus-Tcp
Chapter 2 2. Anybus X-gateway Modbus-TCP 2.1 Introduction The Anybus X-gateway Modbus-TCP is a series of network gateways, used to provide a seamless con- nection between a Modbus-TCP network and a controlling network. This particular product connects a Modbus-TCP network to another Modbus-TCP network. In order to avoid confusion, the controlling network will be called Network 1, and the network that is controlled will be called Network 2. -
Page 10: Features
Anybus X-gateway Modbus-TCP 10 2.2 Features Anybus X-gateways for Modbus-TCP act as intelligent links between two industrial networks. On Net- work 2, they function as clients (masters) while they function as servers (slaves) on Network 1. The im- plementation is based on the Anybus NP30 ASIC technology. 2.3 Configuring the Modbus-TCP Network The Anybus X-gateway is a Modbus-TCP server (slave) on Network 1. -
Page 11: Functional Overview
Anybus X-gateway Modbus-TCP 11 2.4 Functional Overview Internally, the X-gateway consists of an intelligent gateway platform: an Anybus Modbus-TCP client in- terface for Network 2 and an Anybus Modbus-TCP server interface for Network 1. The two interfaces are interconnected through the intelligent gateway platform, which basically forwards data from one net- work to the other and vice versa as shown below. -
Page 12: Data Exchange
Anybus X-gateway Modbus-TCP 12 2.5 Data Exchange Each of the two network interfaces exchanges data on its network through two buffers. The X-gateway forwards the data between these buffers as shown below. Note that this process is separated from the network data exchange. -
Page 13: I/O Mapped Data
Anybus X-gateway Modbus-TCP 13 2.6 I/O Mapped Data I/O mapped data is cyclic data, exchanged between the networks and/or devices at a high transfer rate. It is associated with data that is continuously sent on the network. 2.7 Parameter Data Parameter data is usually exchanged acyclically, to set or change parameters in devices before or during normal process. -
Page 14: Live List
Anybus X-gateway Modbus-TCP 14 2.9 Live List The live list features the possibility for Network 1 to continuously receive an I/O mapped list containing the status of every transaction on Network 2. It is accessible using parameter access, and also I/O mapped by default. The I/O mapped live list can be enabled/disabled when configuring the Network 1 settings. -
Page 15: Transaction Status List
Anybus X-gateway Modbus-TCP 15 2.10 Transaction Status List This list holds information about the transactions between Network 2 and the module, from the per- spective of the module. It is a list available from the module, which is possible to be retrieved acyclically (using parameter access) by the Modbus-TCP network. -
Page 16: Exception Code List
Anybus X-gateway Modbus-TCP 16 2.11 Exception Code List If Modbus transactions fail, the slaves can respond with an exception code. These can be found in the exception code list available from the module, possible to be retrieved acyclically (using parameter ac- cess) by the Modbus-TCP network. -

About the Anybus X-gateway Modbus-TCP 18 3.2 Mounting the X-gateway The Anybus X-gateway can be physically installed either by mounting it onto a DIN-rail or, if installed in areas exposed to vibration, by mounting it on a wall for more stability. 3.2.1 DIN-rail Mounting Make sure the DIN-rail fastening mechanism on the back of the module is in a fixed and closed position, i. -
Page 19: Wall Mounting
About the Anybus X-gateway Modbus-TCP 19 3.2.2 Wall Mounting Use the wall mounting option if there is a need to place the X-gateway in an environment exposed to vibration. This way of mounting the module offers more stability than the traditional DIN-rail mount- ing. -

Page 24: Easy Backup
SD Card Functionality 24 4.3 Easy Backup Every time a configuration change is applied in the X-gateway Management section using the configu- ration web pages, the configuration is saved both in the memory of the X-gateway and on the SD card. This is the easiest way of keeping a continuously updated configuration backup. -

Page 34: Modbus Servers
Network Configuration 34 7.4.3 Modbus Servers The configuration of the servers on the Modbus-TCP network is made here. The X-gateway can handle up to 64 different servers, and a maximum of 64 transactions distributed among those servers. It is pos- sible to map up to 256 bytes of data in either direction, including control/status word and live list. - Page 35 Network Configuration 35 Add Transactions Transactions represent the data that is read from/written to the servers of the Modbus-TCP network. The global configuration limits box keeps track of the number of added transactions, the current mini- mum allowed scan time, and the current amount of I/O mapped data as well at the total amount of data (both I/O mapped and not I/O mapped data).
- Page 36 Network Configuration 36 Available settings Setting Description Function code The function code defines the purpose of the transaction. Choose from five different Modbus functions, see “Modbus-TCP Functions” on page 26. Data encoding Decides in what order the different bytes of the received/transmitted data shall be sent on the net- work.

Page 37: Modbus-Tcp (Network 1 Server Interface)
Network Configuration 37 7.4.4 Modbus-TCP (Network 1 Server Interface) Configuration of the Modbus-TCP server interface of the X-gateway. What is shown is the currently stored configuration, provided that all changes are saved and applied to the X-gateway. The column ‘Actual’ presents the settings that are currently used. The TCP/IP settings (IP address, Sub- net mask and Gateway) can be changed by the Modbus-TCP network (Network 1) during runtime and will then override the chosen values in the configuration web pages. - Page 38 Network Configuration 38 Available settings for the Modbus-TCP network Setting Description IP address If not set by Network 1 or DHCP, set these values manually. (Disable DHCP to make the fields editable). Subnet mask Gateway DHCP Enabled by default. When enabled, the X-gateway can obtain the TCP/IP settings dynamically from the DHCP server of the Modbus-TCP network (Network 1).
