Syntax

PRINT [#x,] MAKEMODBUS(slave, function, address, varbts )

 

 

Anmerkungen

slave	The slave to address. This is a variable or constant with a valid MODBUS slave to address.
function	The function number. This must be a constant. At the moment the following functions are supported : • 03 : read register(s) • 06 : write single register • 16 : write multiple registers
address	The starting address of the register
varbts	For a function that sends data like function 6 and 16, this must be a variable. For function 06 which can only write a single register, this can be a byte or integer or word. For function 16 it may be a long, single or double. For function 6 and 16 the address of the variable is passed to the function. For function 3 you may also specify the number of bytes to receive. Or you can use a variable. When you specify a byte, a word will be used anyway since a word (2 bytes) is the minimum in MODBUS protocol. But when sending data, you can send content of a byte. For the MSB the value 0 will be sent in that case.

 

The MAKEMODBUS function need to be used in combination with the PRINT statement. It can only be used with the hardware UART(1-4).

The MODBUS protocol is an industry standard. The protocol can be used with RS-232, RS-485 or TCP/IP or CAN.

The current BASCOM implementation only works with RS-232 or RS485.

In MODBUS we use client/master and server/slave. You may see it as a web server and a web browser. The web server is the client/slave that reacts on the master/web browser.

A slave will only respond when it is addressed. All other slaves just keep listening till they are addressed.

An addressed slave will process the data and send a response.

In MODBUS the data is sent with MSB first and LSB last. The special CRC16 checksum is sent LSB first and MSB last.

When multiple registers are sent with function 16, the data is split up into words, and for each word, the MSB-LSB order is used.

For example a LONG is 4 bytes. LSB, NSB1, NSB2, MSB. It would be sent as : NSB1, LSB, MSB, NSB2.

In order to use the MODBUS functionality, you need to include the MODBUS.LBX with the $LIB directive.

Notice that BASCOM only supports the MODBUS master. A MODBUS server that supports the above functions will be available from MCS.
