What is Modbus TCP/IP?
Modbus TCP/IP is a variant of the Modbus communication protocol, used for connecting industrial electronic devices over an Ethernet network. It enables communication between devices such as PLCs, sensors, and computers for monitoring and control purposes. It is widely used in industrial automation due to its open standard, ease of implementation, and compatibility with existing Modbus devices.
