Modbus Serial Master Jamodis

Public class ModbusSerialMaster extends java.lang.Object. Modbus/Serial Master facade. Version: 1.2rc1 () Author: Dieter Wimberger, John Charlton. Constructor Summary: ModbusSerialMaster(SerialParameters param) Constructs a new master facade instance for communication with a given slave. Jan 11, 2019  QModMaster is a free Qt-based implementation of a ModBus master application. A graphical user interface allows easy communication with ModBus RTU and TCP slaves. QModMaster also includes a bus monitor for examining all traffic on the bus.

The Master is sending out periodic requests with these 2 functions; the Slave is listening for requests, both using modbus_update() function in the sketch loop. Main parameters:

  • Slave ID (example: 2)

  • Baud rate (use 9600 on the Industruino D21G, higher rates may not work)

  • Name of the Serial port (Serial on IND.I/O)

  • RS485 Tx enable pin (9 on IND.I/O)

  • Additional Master parameters: timeout, polling, retry_count

The library comes with an excellent SimpleModbusMasterManual.

Note 1: Latency

Modbus RTU does not give instant communication; there is a minimum latency of e.g. 20 milliseconds on the Master side (see this explanation) and also the Slave needs time to go back to Idle state, as explained in the SimpleModbusMasterManual in above link:

The fifth parameter, the polling delay, is sometimes the most confusing to explain to users. It is the resting period between requests from the master to allow a slave to enter its idle state. This is because a slave also runs on an FSM and can only start responding to a request once the idle state is reached. Some quick acting slaves will revert to the idle state within 10ms but the usual slave will take around 100ms – 200ms.

Experiments show that with a baud rate of 115200, the modbus_update() function on the Slave takes around 15-20ms (only when a request is received), and around 10ms on the Master.

Note 2: Using delay();

The SimpleModbusMasterManual recommends not using delay() of more than 100 msec:

Using delays longer than 100ms will affect the FSM negatively. It is not good practice to use large delays when coding. Rather use millis() to form some sort of crude multi-tasking.

See Master sketch example.

Note 3: RS485 termination resistors

The SimpleModbusMasterManual recommends the following termination resistor setup:

MASTER:

  • 120R between A and BIND.I/O: leave middle jumper

  • 510R pull-up on D+=A IND.I/O: leave top jumper

  • 510R pull-down on D-=BIND.I/O: leave bottom jumper

  • 100R in series on GNDIND.I/O 560R

SLAVE:

  • 120R between A and BIND.I/O: leave middle jumper

  • 100R in series on GNDIND.I/O 560R

  • no pull-up or pull-downIND.I/O: remove top and bottom jumpers

See picture on the left showing the 3 jumpers in place.

Modbus Poll is a Modbus master simulator designed primarily to help developers of Modbus slave devices or others that want to test and simulate the Modbus protocol. With the multiple document interface you can monitor several Modbus slaves and/or data areas at the same time. For each window you simply specify the Modbus slave ID, function, address, size and poll rate. You can read and write registers and coils from any window. If you want to change a single register, simply double click the value. Or you can change multiple registers/coils. Multiple data formats such as float, double and long with word order swapping are available.

Exception errors are shown on the status line.

If you are a slave developer you can compose and send your own test strings in the 'test center' and check the result from the slave in hex numbers.

OLE Automation for interfacing with Excel. To interpret and show the Modbus data according to your specific requirements. E.g. edit data in Excel and then transmit the data to your slave device! Try the Excel example.xlsm installed with the program.
