MAC address SS3580-MBTCP

Post by pakkinen »

Dear all,

Does the converter ethernet modbus TCP to modbus RS485 has a MAC address?. If it's so, how can I know it?

Thanks and regards,
Paco

Anything TCP must have a MAC Address. It is required to be developed. I don't have one of these modules, but from reading product info it appears you configure the ip settings via telnet. You can configure the module with an ip, then there is a couple things you can try. You can download a net scan utility such as angryziber IPScan. If you are using windows, you can ping the ip of the device, then immediately type command "arp -a". This will display previous connections and said IP should appear in this list with its mac address.
