Modbus TCP Protocol added to 90-30 Ethernet Interface


IC693CMM321-FH
Summary
The Series 90-30 Ethernet Interface (IC693CMM321) is being enhanced with the addition of
Modbus TCP protocol. Both Client (Master) and Server (Slave) capabilities are being added. The
new version is expected to be available (as a firmware upgrade) in the second half of June,
shipment of new units is expected in early July. The price of the IC693CMM321 will not be
affected.

Features/Description
The Series 90-30 Ethernet Interface will support both SRTP and Modbus TCP simultaneously.
The Module will respond to SRTP messages and to Modbus TCP messages.
Four new COMMREQs are added for Modbus TCP.
1. Create a Modbus TCP connection using a Channel (Note: number of channels
remains the same, 16. A channel is used for either SRTP or Modbus).
2. Modbus Read – Read Discretes or Words
3. Modbus Writes – Write a coil or Mutliple Words
4. Close a Modbus TCP connection

Modbus Conformance Codes 0 and 1 are supported, which is read or write single or multiple
discetes or words which are contiguous. Conformance Code 2 is not supported, which is read or
write multiple items which are scattered in memory.
The Create a Connection COMMREQ has a unit identifier field so that a serial Modbus address
can be provided to allow communication to multidropped serial Modbus RTU networks, when
connected thru a VMSE (Serial to Ethernet Adapter) or a Modbus Bridge.

Compatibility
• A firmware update will be available to add Modbus TCP to IC693CMM321-FG, this is
the version with the 10BaseT RJ45 port. IC693CMM321-EF and earlier can not be
upgraded. The upgrade will go on GE Fanuc WEB site in the Technical Support section
once it is available.
• All 90-30 CPUs models are supported, version 6.50 firmware or higher is required
• All Programmers support the Modbus TCP feature.
