s7-1200 1212c PLC Connection to a website

Good day, does anyone know if I still need a communication module so I can connect my s7-1200 1212c PLC to my website (it will send On and Off status).

As far as I am able to see the details I can see that there is #modbus #modbus /tcp communication available for the communication which means you can have data on the website or even you can control the PLC from there.

Also if you find any difficulty please post it here I may help you with that since I worked with the Modbus over serial and Modbus over RS485.

Also if you need any help just ping me I can surely help you with this. Waiting to see your progress and results.

I am not sure is possible to do a direct connection with the server from PLC or not.
