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!

Re: Modbus Slave Component
Hello,
It has been started, I just need to find some time to finish it and test it works. Hopefully coming soon....

Re: Modbus Slave Component
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.

Re: Modbus Slave Component
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.
And Ben is working for Slave component when he finish my dreams will be real

Re: Modbus Slave Component
Hello
Is there perhaps an indication when the 485 Slave modbus is ready for testing or perhaps finished

Re: Modbus Slave Component
Hello,
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.

This is a wonderfull news.
Yeaha at last i will meet with modbus.
Is there a sellected date for Flowcode 7?
