Expand Healthpoint (Device Status) Information of the PI Adapter for Modbus TCP from Component to "Device" Level

When configuring PI Modbus TCP adapter you first define a component level and under this type you define your different devices/machines/sensors. In case of a broken connection to one of the devices the healthpoints currently only deliver the stat...

Documentation of EDS Modbus TCP Adapter needs to be updated on removed 32-bit register support for Modbus TCP Adapter

Challenge: The current version of PI Adapter for Modbus TCP does not any longer support 32-bit Holding/Input registers as this is outside of the Modbus specifications. However, in some cases, 32-bit register values have to be read from 16-bit regi...

Support for "RTU over TCP" for Modbus Adapter using MBAP header

Challenge: Today, the PI Adapter for Modbus TCP does not natively support " RTU over TCP". It does support Modbus TCP, so as long as the "bridge" properly converts Modbus RTU to Modbus TCP (including the MBAP header), it should work fine. If the b...

Don't change product version information response structure

The design of the /productinformation response has changed between EDS 2020 and EDS 2023 Patch 1. Our application missed the new position of the version string so I had to change code to catch it. I know the product has shipped so there is nothing...

Accept HEX numbers for Register offsets in data selection

Most modbus equipment providers provide information using registers in Hex format i.e. 0x0000 ~ 0xFFFF. It would be nice if the offset could accept this to avoid error in conversions HEX to DEC. Would make things alot more seamless/easier.
