I am trying to monitor the status of UR robots using ignition Scada over Modbus TCP:
The connection seems to be unstable, switches between connected and Disconnected, I was wondering if its the settings like ‘Communication Timeout’, ‘Max Retry count etc causing this.
Have anyone tried similar setup and what settings would be preferred?
Thanks in advance.
I am using ignition v 8.3.4 (and previously 8.3.3) to connect to a controller running polyscope X v 10.11.1. My modbus connection seems stable.
I’m using almost all default settings in ignition.
Here are the differences I see between my setting an yours:
Communication time out: 2000
Max Holding Registers Per Write Request: 123
Span gaps: True
Max retry count: 1
I have one switch between my robot and my server, which I am running off of my personal machine.
Hope that helps.
