COMM7 is a great software utility that can be used for a number of purposes. It has ASCII Xon/Xoff & Modbus RTU single packet protocol support for use with the 981S (RC900) controller, the 96, 97, F4S & F4D controllers. It can be used to test the controller’s serial interface, as a listener terminal to display and view comms strings, as a data logger, as a means to upload and download controller parameter configuration files and turns your PC into remote control interface.
Modbus RTU Test is a powerful Windows-based diagnostic utility. Modbus RTU Test can be used as a digital communications diagnostic tool for dual register packet Modbus RTU protocol instruments like the model PM controller using the EIA-485/232 serial interface.
Modbus TCP Test is a powerful Windows-based diagnostic utility. Modbus TCP Test can be used as a digital communications diagnostic tool for dual register packet Modbus TCP protocol instruments like the model PM controller with the optional Ethernet interface.
ModbusTest is similar to MBReader2 but is newer and has more features. It is designed to send and receive simple command strings to and from the PM controller utilizing the ModBus RTU dual packet protocol. It’s great for testing the serial comms interface. It also comes with more detailed help instructions. You can download the ModbusTest help file with the link below:
The NI LabVIEW VI Driver sample is for use with the EIA-485 serial port and proprietary
Standard Bus protocol on all model PM controllers
