i think in next version or update more people will want modbus slave RTU mode.

Hello,

I believe this is currently being worked on by one of our users. Who else would like to see a MODBUS Slave component as part of the Flowcode offering?

i want to explain one more time who is not use mode bus or don't know modbus.
Modbus is a wonderfull protocol have a long distance.Useing RS485 protocol.
Normally PLC machines used much.If you want to build small components as a slave of an PLC system you will need modbus slave functions.
Some of the flowcode users build this with rs 232 functions i really don't know is it working or not.
The way is soo long and a little bit complex when you try to use RS485 protocol with RS232.
One day all of flowcode users will need this slave component in his or her project.
Please support me
i bleave that benj can do this like a toy
but me it's complicated.Thats why i need modbus slave component.

+1 This is an important protocol for Industrial Applications I support the request 100%

Thank you QMESAR for youre support. God bless you.
i am trying to do it by RS232 style but too long and make so many mistakes
PLS we need more support.
New flowcode users thrust me u will need this protocol one day.
And that day you will remember my calling to support

Hello

Here is the current version of my MODBUS slave FLOWCODE components.

Everything starts with MODBUS_master_requesting component.... So after you receive data to UART you will call that macro.

This version is working fine with industrial Touch panels. Master writing multiple INTs command is not complete, because i havent needed it so far

Dear Matrix team,

Yes, the Modbus RTU slave component will be a great addition. Kindly consider including this as one of the priorities.

Thanks in advance.

files end with .fcm
how to open these?

.fcm are FlowCode Macros.
Select Macro then Import....

My pc has a problem i think it's not importing :S

If post a flowchart you would like to import macro with, then I will import it for you and post modified flowchart.

i can export but can't import ?

I have just checked and macros posted are for Flowcode V5.
That is why you're having trouble importing.
The only way you can do this is to import into a Flowcode V5, save flowchart then load Flowchart V6 with the V5 saved flowchart.
I have done this for you but not all macros are there.
You will need to add a send macro etc.

i do not have flowcode v5
see the problems?
V6 needs modbus slave component
or i will give bribery to benj to do this
ok benj 1 kg Turkish baklava is enough for you?

come on guys i need some support for this action.
Thrust me one day u will need this protocol.

I Agree this would be nice addition to flowcode ,

Would it be possible to have selectable baud rates , selectable parity's

Steve

Thank you for supporting me Steave001.
ok who is next?

Hello,

Ok in PatchSet 4 the Modbus component should be complete and should work correctly. I'm a bit unsure as the guide I was following sent the data MSB first but then sent the CRC LSB first so might be a few remaining issues to iron out.

If anyone tries the component with Modbus hardware then let me know how your getting on and I will do my best to help out.

Modbus slave component would also be a nice feature so I will make sure it is on the list.
hmmmm benj also supporting me too
there is nothing to afraid if benj is behind me
you can escape but you can't hide
come on..... you also know this will be a great feature for flowcode
We can build small parts for big systems. (one of my dream)
