The unit ID is set to 00 or FFin most of the typical Modbus TCP/IP server application, ignored by the server, and simply echoed back in the response.

Length (2 bytes): It includes the unit identifier byte, function code byte, and the data fields and byte counts of the remaining fields.Protocol Identifier (2 bytes): For Modbus services protocol identifier field is always 0 and other values are reserved for future extensions.Transaction/invocation Identifier (2 Bytes): This identification field is used for pairing the transactions when multiple messages are sent along the same TCP connection by a client without waiting for a prior response.

Must Read : Profibus vs Profinet MBAP header Must Read : What is Profibus ? How Profibus Work ? Now if we talk about the messaging structure of Modbus TCP/IP it has a 7-byte header called as MBAP header (Modbus Application Header) is added to the start of the message with a PDU (Protocol Data Unit). Modbus masters referred as clients and Modbus slave as servers.Modbus TCP/IP clients and servers sends and receive Modbus data via port 502. Modbus TCP/IP works on clients and servers model. So in simple words we can say Modbus TCP/IP message is a Modbus communication encapsulated in an Ethernet TCP/IP wrapper. Modbus TCP/IP simply combines a physical layer named Ethernet, with a networking standard named TCP/IP, and a standard method of representing data that is Modbus, all of which combines to carry data of the Modbus message structure between compatible devices. Ethernet/ip is very Powerfull, but it is also complex Must Read : OPC-UA vs DA Modbus TCP/IP vs Ethernet IPĮthernet/IP uses the Ethernet architecture to establish connection between automation devices like PLCs,DCS, sensors,industrial machines.Įthernet/IP managed by the Open DeviceNet Vendors Association (ODVA) and is based on the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP).

The combination of TCP/IP can simply be called as a transport protocol which does not define what the data means or how the data can be interpreted, but Modbus along with TCP/IP as an application protocol can be used to interpret the data.
