Address If both ports of the MIM are being used on the same bus the ports must have unique ad dresses The Interface Solution Experts 1 Each MODBUS port can be individually configured to enable the MIM station to act as a Peer to Peer mode consumer on that port For all consumer station ports a Producer s MODBUS Address see below must be as signed When the consumer feature is disabled no Producer s MODBUS Address is assigned and the station s output channels will have no input from another MIM station mapped to them via that port The Producer s MODBUS Address identifies the MODBUS address of the MIM station containing the in put channels that will be mapped to the output channels of this station The address range is 1 32 excluding the MODBUS Address of the station being configured Hardware Configuration The MIM with the Peer to Peer feature has a point to point or point to multipoint relationship In each case however the module must be in the same position as the module with which it is exchanging data For example if the Producer station has a MIM TIM AIM DIM configura tion then the Consumer station must have a MIM AOM AOM ROM configuration If the discrete and analog module positions are not the same in the producer and consumer an incompatible module fault will occur see Table S 1 Enabling Peer to Peer Software Configuration To configure a Peer to Peer network you must use NCS Configuration Software P
