I've set up the logo as a modbus server and I'm able to read data via modscan but cannot get any successful transmits/receives to MBE - POWERTOOL. I've setup multiple GE plcs as modbus servers and have no issue on MBE - Powertool driver client side. I'm starting to question whether this driver only allows GE plcs. Can't find any documentation to back up this claim. As for the LOGO, the client setup is identical to that of the working GE plcs. Appreciate any assistance.

I guess there is another issue now...the transmits and receives count for a few minutes then stop, even though the data quality remains good. I need to re-enable the device on the client side to re-initiate the transmits and receives.
