In addition to the legacy remote interfaces described above, the sat-nms IO-FEP2 offers Modbus/TCP as its recommended remote control interface.
Modbus is a very efficient protocol which has been developed to control industrial devices in real time. It offers functions which set or read single parameters or larger sets of parameters in one single transaction.
Unlike the legacy remote interfaces of the sat-nms IO-FEP and IO-FEP-E which are limited to the operational parameters of the device, the Modbus/TCP interface gives access to all parameters, including the installation/setup parameters of the device.
