Program emulator of the terminal T0601

Program emulator of the terminal T0601 is designed to control from PC the remote devices via the serial interface RS-232/RS-485 (converter USB - RS-485) using the Modbus RTU communication protocol. And also for debugging software and hardware products, which is composed of control terminal T0601.

The emulator can be used in step debugging / testing of industrial automation - controllers, remote peripherals and other devices supporting Modbus RTU protocol as a slave-devices.

Program emulator serves as a Modbus master device. Reading data function performed Read Holding Registers (code 0x03), one for each register request. Writing of data is a function of Write Single Register (code 0x06).

Creating and editing a hierarchical menu of the terminal is performed using a visual menu editor on the platform Eclipse (www.eclipse.org). The editor is built on technology Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF).
