Arduino PLC to Ignition via Modbus

[colivarivera]

I connected Arduino PLC Portenta Machine Control via Modbus to Ignition

Basic Steps
1 Setup the Static IP Address on Arduino PLC

2. Check Modbus Unit Identifier
   

   

3. Setup Some dummy Tags on Parameters to test
   

   

4. Click Recalc, compile and Download
   

   

Note: I run into problems with COM port, just open Arduino IDE 2 and Serial if need it to recover access to the COM port

5. Once downlaoded the free trial Server on your computer create a Device Connection on the OPC UA
   
   

   
   
   
   

6. Add Tags on Ignition on Addresses Configuration
   

   
   
   
   

7. Check quick Clilent
   
   

   

8. Open desginer and create the Tags
   a. Create the project
   b. Create the OPC Tags, you can map them directly from the Device
   

   

9. Test the Tags
   a. Go online and set Live Debug
   
   b. Set the Tags on the Watch Window
   

   
   
   c. Test by changin the values on both ends

how did you connect your PC/laptop to the internet? through wifi or ethernet cable?

did you change the IPAddress gateway in step 1?
