=====RS232 Slave Device Configuration=====
----
The <b>RS232 Slave Device Configuration</b> section is used to configure the parameters of Modbus RTU slaves that the Master (this {{{name}}} device) will be querying with requests. The figure below is an example of the RS232 Slave Device Configuration and the table below provides information on the fields contained in that section:

<td>Slave device's name, used for easier management purposes.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Slave ID</td>
<td>integer [0..255]; default: <b>none</b></td>
<td>Slave ID. Each slave in a network is assigned a unique identifier ranging from 1 to 255. When the master requests data from a slave, the first byte it sends is the Slave ID. When set to 0, the slave will respond to requests addressed to any ID.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Period</td>
<td>integer [1..86400]; default: <b>60</b></td>

<td>Maximum response wait time.</td>
</tr>
</table>
====Requests Configuration====
----
A Modbus <b>request</b> is a way of obtaining data from Modbus slaves. The master sends a request to a slave specifying the function code to be performed. The slave then sends the requested data back to the Modbus master. You can create a maximum of 64 request configurations for each slave device.
The Request Configuration list is empty by default. To add a new Request Configuration loon to the Add New Instance section. Enter a custom name into the 'Name' field and click the 'Add' button:

The <b>MQTT Gateway</b> function is used to transfer Modbus data over MQTT. Refer to the table for information on MQTT Gateway configuration fields.
The new Request Configuration should become visible in the list:

----
After having configured a request, you should see a new 'Request Configuration Testing' section appear. It is used to check whether the configuration works correctly. Simply click the 'Test' button and a response should appear in the box below. A successful response to a test may look something like this:
[[Category:{{{name}}} Services section]]

====Alarms Configuration====
----
<b>Alarms</b> are a way of setting up automated actions when some Modbus values meet user-defined conditions. When the Modbus TCP Master (this {{{name}}} device) requests some information from a slave device it compares that data to with the parameters set in an Alarm Configuration. If the comparison meets the specified condition (more than, less than, equal to, not equal to), the Master performs a user-specified action, for example, a Modbus write request or switching the state of an output.
The figure below is an example of the Alarms Configuration list. To create a new Alarm, click the 'Add' button.
[[File:Networking_rutos_manual_modbus_modbus_tcp_master_alarms_configuration_add_button.png|border|class=tlt-border]]
After adding the Alarm you should be redirected to its configuration page which should look similar to this:
