Hi Maks,

We had this also, turned out the 3rd party was using an incorrect register, we 
could create a few blocks, then device went off line.

Rgds,

Dirk

Onderwerp: [foxboro] FBM232 Modbus Setup Issues

Dear List,
I am setting up an FBM232 using Modbus TCP. The ECB200 and ECB201 blocks are 
both showing good in system manager and all good green in FoxView.

As soon as I build an IIN or BIN block to try to read from the device my
ECB201 block fails and reads:
DVC FAIL (red)
OFF SCAN (grey)
DCI READY (cyan)
DVC ENABLD (cyan)
DVC FAIL (cyan)

To get back online I have to delete the IIN/BIN block and disable then 
re-enable communication on the ECB201. I've set up the ECBs the same way I have 
for other working ones but the device I'm talking to is different.

Any suggestions as to what could be wrong? How can I determine if the problem 
is on the Foxboro end or the slave device?

Many thanks,

Maks Wilde
