MODBUS TCP Communication with Mitsubishi FX5U Series PLC

MODBUS TCP Communication The new Mitsubishi FX5U series also supports MODBUS TCP communication. The common method is to act as a MODBUS TCP slave, where the Mitsubishi PLC listens on port 502 (default) for connection requests and read/write commands from the MODBUS TCP master. Of course, it can also act as a master to actively … Read more
