Modbus TCP FieldKit vs Modbus Explorer

Modbus TCP FieldKit puts a professional Modbus TCP toolkit in your pocket. Commission equipment in the field, validate setups in the lab, or troubleshoot home automation — all from your iPhone. • Connect to any Modbus TCP or RTU over TCP device — read coils and registers, monitor data blocks in real time • Modbus RTU over TCP — reach RS-485 devices through Wi-Fi or Ethernet converters in transparent mode (for example Elfin EW11, USR or Waveshare). If a read times out, the app offers to try the other framing with a single read. • Find devices and Scan Unit IDs on your own Wi-Fi subnet — ports 502, 1502, 8899 and 4196. Each device is read once and nothing is written. • Chart every monitored value — the app keeps the last 600 points or 1 hour per value while it is open — and Export CSV through the system share sheet. • Save device profiles for one-tap reconnection to frequently used endpoints • Write with confidence — every write operation requires your explicit confirmation • Built-in foreground simulator — run editable coils and holding registers for testing • Track active connections and review bounded local logs kept on your device • All data stays local — logs and diagnostic exports are sanitized by default Requires Local Network access for device communication. RS-485 devices connect through a Wi-Fi or Ethernet converter in transparent mode. Default server port is 1502. Background server operation and port 502 support pending device validation.

Modbus Explorer helps automation engineers, field technicians, and maintenance teams discover and diagnose Modbus TCP devices on local industrial networks. Scan your network to find Modbus TCP devices, identify available device information, review open ports, and inspect communication health from one place. Key features: • Fast Modbus TCP device discovery • Device identification where supported • Open port overview • OSI-based diagnostics for physical, network, transport, and application layers • UID scan for Modbus TCP devices • Modbus read/write request tools • Network statistics including ping, jitter, packet loss, and response timing • Modbus TCP performance testing • Communication dashboard per device • PDF and CSV diagnostic reports • Optional engineer, company, and logo information for professional reports • Live Modbus HMI dashboard with configurable register cards • Saved networks with persistent HMI cards and PDF/CSV reports Modbus Explorer is designed for real industrial troubleshooting scenarios involving PLCs, HMIs, drives, gateways, and other Modbus TCP equipment. Whether you are commissioning a new panel, checking a device on site, documenting a network, or diagnosing communication issues, Modbus Explorer gives you a practical toolset for understanding what is happening on the wire. Some device identification and diagnostic information depends on the target device configuration and supported Modbus services.
