This section describes how to connect and configure a WattNode meter with Modscan32, set the CtAmps, and make some basic measurements. No Linux or Apple OS version is available. When displaying floating point values, Modscan32 displays blank lines between every other value.When displaying floating point values, if the window isn’t tall enough, Modscan32 displays multiple columns, but the text from one column overlaps the next.When trying to change a value, the focus doesn’t start in the value text box, requiring an extra click.However, there is a work-around for this (see csv.exe below). The non-standard data format requires using Excel’s Import Wizard which takes more steps. Captured text files are not in standard CSV (Comma Separated Values) format.Modscan32 is a tool intended mainly for engineers and IT folks who are familiar with the basics of protocols like Modbus.Modscan32’s Point Type selection defaults to “Coil Status” which requires switching it to “Holding Register” before a WattNode meter’s register can be polled.Ocean Controls approach of setting up individual tags which is more tedious and time-consuming). It can be quickly set up to read a range of registers of the same type (vs.Has a “hex dump” display mode which is useful for trouble-shooting communications problems.
