With few exceptions, data groups must be defined in a device template file in order for them to be available for use on a remote device. Which data groups are defined by a device template file depends on protocol, device type, and unique configuration.
CygNet distributes sample device template files for its EIEs, each of which typically serves one or more hardware models along with applicable firmware. Therefore, the data groups described below are only those data groups defined by CygNet in sample device template file(s). Your template(s) might not include some of the data groups described below. Device template files exist to enable users to customize device configurations; however, CygNet is not responsible for changes made by users.
For information about data group definitions and device template files, see Device Template Files.
For more information about data group dependencies, see Data Group Dependencies.
Note: Modifications can be made to this EIE's templates to suit unique needs. However, you must use care when doing so. It is not likely that the device template file will need to be modified aside from standard UDC mapping. Instead, make most data group modifications through the Configurable Modbus data group.

"Single Write Coil" requires the use of function code 15 to write a single coil. Note: Micro1C devices do not support function codes 1 (read read-only coil), 2 (read read/write coil), or 5 (write single coil). |
