The MODPORT is a field I/O product created by COMFILE Technology. It is an excellent accessory for the ComfileHMI if you need to easily supplement the ComfileHMI with I/O features.
When creating a new project, select COMFILE, MODPORT as shown below.
Model Name | Module Type | Description | Voltage / Current | Address for HMI |

MD-DOSI8 | 8-pin DC Sink Output | DC Output x 8 (Sink Type) | DC 3.3V ~ 27V / 1A | 03101 ~ 03108 |
MD-DOSO8 | 8-pin DC Source Output | DC Output x 8 (Source Type) | DC 12V ~ 24V / 1A | 03001 ~ 03008 |
MD-DORL8 | 8-pin Relay Output | Relay Output x 8 | DC 6 ~ 27V / 4A AC 6 ~ 240V / 4A | 03201 ~ 03208 |
MD-DIDC8 | 8-pin DC Output | DC Input x 8 (12V~24V) | DC 12V ~ 24V | 00001 ~ 00008 |
Model Name | Module Type | Description | Input/Output Range | Address for HMI |
---|---|---|---|---|
MD-ADIN4 | 4 Channel Analog Input | 13.3-bit ADC x 4 | 0~10V, 1~5V (4~20mA) | 40101 ~ 40104 |
MD-HADIN4 | 4 Channel High Resolution Analog Input | 16.6-bit ADC x 4 | 0~10V, 1~5V (4~20mA) | 40201 ~ 40204 |
MD-THRT4 | 4 Channel Temperature Input | PT100 Ohm Temperature Sensor x 4 | -100.0 ~ 500.0 °C | 40301 ~ 40304 |
MD-DAOUT2 | 2 Channel Digital-to-Analog Voltage Output | 16-bit DAC x 2 | 0~10V, 0~5V | 43301 ~ 43302 |
MD-DAOUT2B | 2 Channel Digital-to-Analog Current Output | 16-bit DAC x 2 | 4~20mA, 0~20mA | 43401 ~ 43404 |
For bit access, select 0 as the address prefix.
For word access, select 4 as the prefix and enter the address minus 40000.
For the module that reads the value, the display type must be specified. Please specify as follows.
If multiple modules of the same module are used simultaneously on one RS485 line, the IDs (slave addresses) must be set differently at this time because the addresses are duplicated.
For the MODPORT module, there is a rotary switch on the front that can be changed from 1 to 10 (0 is 10).
The <External Device> added when creating the project automatically has the slave address set to 1.
Press the Add External Device button and select a slave address other than 1.
Adding additional slave addresses is straight-forward.
