On the basis of investigating the digital oilfield construction,this paper studies the communication mode between oilfield field wireless meter and RTU,the meaning of its parameters and puts forward a new design idea of the RTU debugging software.In the oil field,the most used communication method between RTU and the host computer software are serial Modbus and Ethernet Modbus.In the VS2010 development environment,we use C# to program these two communication protocols and user can choose different protocol according to the requirement of the oilfield.Then use XML file to describe the point table inside of RTU and the meter.At last,the XML file would be loaded into the debug software.By sending different instructions,user can read or configure the parameters of RTU and meter and draw the work diagram.The XML language speed up the software development and saving software development time.The results show that the software is operational well and reduces the requirements for on-filed personnel.
