Implementación de un sistema de control industrial (ics) didáctico modular para el laboratorio de redes industriales : diseño e implementación de un módulo didáctico que emule una celda de control industrial basada en una red modbus.

Abstract

This work focuses on the design and implementation of a modular Industrial Control System (ICS) that simulates an industrial control cell through a network based on the Modbus protocol. The methodological approach encompasses a comprehensive review of the Modbus protocol, the establishment of design requirements, the design of the control cell and the monitoring interface, up to the implementation of the design, its functional verification, and its integration into an industrial process control system. Prominent aspects include both hardware and software development, the configuration of a Modbus server, and the creation of a Human-Machine Interface (HMI) for process monitoring. Throughout the study, a solid theoretical foundation is provided on communication protocols, network topologies, and the Modbus addressing scheme. This paper concludes with a discussion regarding the realization and validation of an implemented control system that leverages the Modbus protocol. The results are analyzed, confirming successful data communication between servers, clients, and the interface through the Modbus network.
