Modbus program


madhukar saran Feb 20, 2021 02:48 AM

I am using below program to use two wind sensor having modbus ouput to CR800. the logger read only ID 0 ( decimal48), but not ID 1 (decimal49)

'CR800 Series Datalogger
'DAS Program for Automatic weather station consisting of :
'Wind speed and wind direction sensor (Ultrasonic)

SequentialMode

'Declare Public Variables
'Example:
Public PTemp, batt_volt
Public Register1(6) As Long 'For Ultrasonic Wind Speed and Direction sensor
Public Result1, Result2 'For Ultrasonic Wind Speed and Direction sensor
Public Register2(6) As Long

Alias Register1(1)= WD1_min
Alias Register1(2)= WD1_avg
Alias Register1(3)= WD1_max
Alias Register1(4)= WS1_min
Alias Register1(5)= WS1_avg
Alias Register1(6)= WS1_max

Alias Register2(1)= WD2_min
Alias Register2(2)= WD2_avg
Alias Register2(3)= WD2_max
Alias Register2(4)= WS2_min
Alias Register2(5)= WS2_avg
Alias Register2(6)= WS2_max

'Declare Other Variables
'Example:
'Dim Counter

'Define Data Tables.
DataTable (Weather_Data,1,-1)
DataInterval (0,0,Min,10) ' Data storage time

Minimum (1,batt_volt,FP2,False,False)
Sample (1,PTemp,FP2)

Sample (6,Register1(),UINT2)
Sample (6,Register2(),UINT2)

EndTable

'Main Program
BeginProg
Scan (5,Sec,0,0)
PanelTemp (PTemp,250)
Battery (batt_volt)

'Code to read wind speed and wind direction sensor
SerialOpen (Com1,19200,0,0,50)

ModbusMaster (Result1,Com1,19200,48,3,Register1(),0001,6,3,100,3) 'sensor having MODBUS Address 0

Register1(4)= (Register1(4)/10)*3.6
Register1(5)= (Register1(5)/10)*3.6
Register1(6)= (Register1(6)/10)*3.6

SerialClose (Com1)

Delay (1,1,Sec)

SerialOpen (Com1,19200,0,0,50)

ModbusMaster (Result2,Com1,19200,49,3,Register2(),0001,6,3,100,3) 'sensor having MODBUS Address 1

Register2(4)= (Register2(4)/10)*3.6
Register2(5)= (Register2(5)/10)*3.6
Register2(6)= (Register2(6)/10)*3.6

SerialClose (Com1)

CallTable Weather_Data

EndProg

From ModbusMaster Help:

"The Modbus address of the device. Valid range is 1-255 (excluding 189, which is the PakBus sync byte). Address 0 is a broadcast address."

Change sensor addresses to 1 and 2.

Try putting one SerialOpen instruction between BeginProg and Scan. It's ok to leave the port open.

Remove the SerialClose and the delay statements, it's not required.

Good Luck
