Modbus Slave Component

Post by STibor »

Hello!

I see that there is a Modbus master component. (I have not used this component)
It is possible that in the near future will be Modbus slave components?

Thanks for the reply!

Hello!
I ask whether there is a project?
I got a PLC, it has RS485 Modbus.
For this I want to connect many different little slave circuits.

Hello!

Thanks for the link.
I'm beginning to understand the Modbus communication.
I use it successfully, "Artose's" sample code.

@Benj
I looked at the Flowcode6 Modbus master component, but I do not see data direction control output.
How is a Modbus hardware, if there is no data direction control?

You must chose RS485 then you will have data direction.
In RS232 we don't have direction.

Hello

Is there perhaps an indication when the 485 Slave modbus is ready for testing or perhaps finished

Hello,
@Benj

Change the Bus property from RS232 to RS485 and this adds a data direction control pin and variable read state properties.

Some good news for you...

I have been granted some time to finish off the Modbus slave component so it will be included in the release of Flowcode 7. As this is a fairly substantial amount of work the Modbus slave will not be released as a free component.

I've already managed to get a lot of the code up and running now so just some finishing off and testing to do.
