 Col# Parameter DescriptionScopeUnitDefault
1Device nameName of the device which holds the datapoint. This name must match the device name used in the Modbus device definition.


2Modbus DP typeData type of the data point.Modbus datapoint type

3AddressSpecifies the memory address of the Modbus register.


4Data typeSpecifies the data type of Server Item that shall represent the Modbus data point.


5SizeSpecifies the size of the Modbus data (only considered if DataType is set to "string" or "wstring").
byte
6DescriptionCan be used to specify a human-readable text that further describes the data point. Optional.


7Polling intervalSpecifies the interval that is used to poll the value of the data point.


8PersistentSpecifies whether the value of the datapoint is persistent (restored from the database after server start up ) or not.boolean
F
10Synchronize

Specifies the synchronization behavior in a Main/Backup setup.

  • T: the value is synchronized between the main and backup server.T
  • F: the value is not synchronized between the main and backup server.
boolean
T
11WordswapCan be used to overwrite the Word Swap parameter of the Modbus device. If this parameter is set to "T" ("TRUE") or "F" ("FALSE"), the word swapping for this datapoint is overwritten. If this parameter is empty (or set to a value unequal to "T" or "F"), the word swapping specified in the device definition is used.


12DWordswapCan be used to overwrite the Double Word Swap parameter of the Modbus device. If this parameter is set to "T" ("TRUE") or "F" ("FALSE"), the double word swapping for this datapoint is overwritten. If this parameter is empty (or set to a value unequal to "T" or "F"), the double word swapping specified in the device definition is used.


13BitswapCan be used to overwrite the Bit Swap parameter of the Modbus device. If this parameter is set to "T" ("TRUE") or "F" ("FALSE"), the bit swapping for this datapoint is overwritten. If this parameter is empty (or set to a value unequal to "T" or "F"), the bit swap specified in the device definition is used.


14Read on ReconnectIf set to "T", a read request is sent if the connection status of the gateway changes to ONLINE.boolean
F
15Write ModeIf not specified, the write mode that is defined within the Modbus Device Definition is used.
