If an error occurred in receipt of the message, or if the slave is unable to perform the requested action, the slave will construct an error message and send it as its response. It contains fields confirming the action taken, any data to be returned, and an error-checking field. The slave's response message is also constructed using Modbus protocol.

Modbus Organization"> Modbus protocol establishes the format for the master's query by placing into it the device (or broadcast) address, a function code defining the requested action, any data to be sent, and an error-checking field.
Slaves return a message (response) to queries that are addressed to them individually. The master can address individual slaves, or can initiate a broadcast message to all slaves.
The other devices (the slaves) respond by supplying the requested data to the master, or by taking the action requested in the query. Another application is for setting up remote factory process controllers (such as other PLCs like Allen-Bradley, Siemens, PLCDirect, etc.) to respond to different levels or modes that are being transmitted from the device.ĭevices using MODBUS communicate using a master-slave technique, in which only one device (the master) can initiate transactions (queries).

Typically a PC is set up running such programs as Wonderware, Intellution or LabVIEW in one location to gather data from various processes around the factory. Depending on the application a newer protocol may have more advantage. It is widely used and a fairly simple protocol. MODBUS is a common means of gathering data from many different sources for viewing operations, archiving and troubleshooting from a central remote location. It was originally designed for Modicon (Schneider Electric) PLCs but has become widely used by many PLC manufacturers and industrial networks. It allows the exchange of data between PLCs and computers. Doing it this way saves you #defining the size // of your slaves register array each time you want to add more registers // and at a glimpse informs you of your slaves register layout.MODBUS is a commonly used industrial communications protocol. */ // Using the enum instruction allows for an easy method for adding and // removing registers.

Since it is assumed that you will mostly use the Arduino to connect to a master without using a USB to Serial converter the internal buffer is set the same as the Arduino Serial ring buffer which is 128 bytes. In a function 16 request the master will attempt to write to your slave and since a 9 bytes is already used for ID, FUNCTION, ADDRESS, NO OF REGISTERS, NO OF BYTES and two BYTES CRC the master can only write 50 bytes or 25 registers. Thus: In a function 3 request the master will attempt to read from your slave and since 5 bytes is already used for ID, FUNCTION, NO OF BYTES and two BYTES CRC the master can only request 54 bytes or 27 registers. Using the FTDI USB to Serial converter the maximum bytes you can send is limited to its internal buffer which is 60 bytes or 30 unsigned int registers. In a function 16 request the master will attempt to write to your slave and since a 9 bytes is already used for ID, FUNCTION, ADDRESS, NO OF REGISTERS, NO OF BYTES and two BYTES CRC the master can only write 118 bytes or 59 registers. In a function 3 request the master will attempt to read from your slave and since 5 bytes is already used for ID, FUNCTION, NO OF BYTES and two BYTES CRC the master can only request 122 bytes or 61 registers. Most of the time you will connect the arduino to a master via serial using a MAX485 or similar. Note: The Arduino serial ring buffer is 128 bytes or 64 registers. The modbus_update() method updates the holdingRegs register array and checks communication.
