I copied this info Direct from the MODBUS.ORG website: "Modbus TCP/IP simply takes the Modbus instruction set and wraps TCP/IP around it"
Wich raises a question; The MODBUS instruction set they mention, is that all 'flavors' of modbus (i.e. ENRON, standard,etc..)
Leading to.... Is it possible to communicate ENRON MODBUS via MODBUS TCP/IP and still gather the Archives, date/time, register data etc.?
I ask because we are currently communicating to our Bristol RTU's in the Field via satellite using serial comms from the earth station to the RTU. If we could convert to TCP/IP this would be a great advantage for future upgrades.
Does anyone have a clear understanding on this?
