Which port will L9_XMIT function block work with on the Unity 140CPU6xxxx
Answer
Issue The Unity help does not state which ports on the 140CPU6xxxx supports the L9_XMIT function block.
Product Line EcoStruxure Control Expert (formerly known as Unity Pro), Quantum
Environment Unity Pro v10, 140CPU67160
Resolution The Unity documentation shows the following statement for the XMIT block.but it does not specify the PLC type. The Unity 140CPU6xxxx only has two Modbus ports.
Function Description The L9_XMIT (transmit) function block sends Modbus messages from a master PLC to multiple slave PLCs or sends ASCII character strings from the PLC's Modbus slave port #0, port#1, or port#2 to ASCII printers and terminals. L9_XMIT sends these messages over telephone dial up modems, radio modems, or simply direct connection.
The L9_XMIT will only work with Modbus port 1 on the 140CPU6xxxx.
