USB-C&&RS-485&&RS-232 FOR AXC F 2152 - Controller 2404267

I have an inquiry pertaining to the AXC F 2152 - Controller with serial number 2404267. Is it possible to access and retrieve data from Modbus RTU via a USB-C connection? I am aware of the existence of a specialized library for Modbus RTU in the application store; however, I have been unable to ascertain the specific details regarding the feasibility and method for reading Modbus RTU through this interface. Your guidance and insights on this matter would be greatly appreciated.I am looking for a way to connect the serial port from Modbus to AXC F 2152

I will even be happy if I can connect the serial modbus to ethernet port as well

Is it possible to access and retrieve data from Modbus RTU via a USB-C connection?No, sorry. There is currently no way to use that USB-C port, either using the Modbus RTU library or any other way.
The Modbus RTU library in the PLCnext Store can only be used with the I/O modules listed in the documentation for that library. One of those I/O modules is required.

If you really can’t use one of those I/O modules, then you could use something like a Modbus RTU to Modbus TCP gateway, which would allow you to indirectly connect Modbus RTU device(s) to the Ethernet port of the controller. In that case you would have to use the Modbus TCP library from the PLCnext Store.
Unfortunately there is no way for an AXC F 2152 to communicate using a Serial protocol like Modbus RTU without additional hardware.

Are there any plans to add such a function via USB C in the future?

No, not at the moment, sorry.

Thank you for the information, I got everything I needed
