Add-On Required: This feature requires the MATLAB Coder Support Package for NVIDIA Jetson and NVIDIA DRIVE Platforms add-on.

  • NVIDIA Modbus TCP/IP Server Write block icon

Libraries:
NVIDIA Jetson and NVIDIA DRIVE / Network

Description

In the Modbus TCP/IP Server Write block, the server device writes data to its registers. The server can write data to only one register per read operation.

MATLAB® Coder™ Support Package for NVIDIA® Jetson™ and NVIDIA DRIVE® Platforms supports the Modbus® communication protocol over the TCP/IP network on Jetson platforms.

Note

The Modbus TCP/IP Server Write block is not supported on NVIDIA DRIVE platforms.

The server can perform read and write operation on these server register(s).

MODBUS TCP/IP Communication Between Client and Server Devices Using NVIDIA Jetson TX2 Hardware

Use the MATLAB® Coder™ Support Package for NVIDIA® Jetson® and NVIDIA DRIVE® Platforms to implement MODBUS® TCP/IP communication between MODBUS client and server devices. It also shows how to communicate between the two devices in four modes of operation, Client Read, Client Write, Server Read, and Server Write.

Ports

Input

expand all

The input to the block is the data that the server writes to its registers as a 1-bit scalar.

  • If you select the Coil or Discrete Input write operations, the server writes data to its registers as a 1-bit write operation as Boolean data.

  • If you select the Holding Register or Input Register write operations, the server writes data to its registers as a 16-bit write operation as uint16 data.

Data Types: Boolean | uint16

Parameters

expand all

Select the type of write operation you want to perform on the server register. Specify one of the following:

ValueDescription
Write Coil

Write data to the coil register address specified in the Coil Address parameter.

Write Discrete Input

Write data to the discrete input register address specified in the Discrete Input Address parameter.

Write Holding Register

Write data to the holding register address specified in the Holding Register Address parameter.

Write Input Register

Write data to the input register address specified in the Input Register Address parameter.

Programmatic Use

Block Parameter: Function
Type: character vector
Values: 'Write Coil' | 'Write Discrete Input' | 'Write Holding Register' | 'Write Input Register'
Default: 'Write Coil'

To notify the server to write data to a specific coil register, specify the coil register address in this parameter. For example, for the server to write data to the coil register with the address 10, enter 10.

Dependencies

To enable this parameter, set Function to Write Coil.

Programmatic Use

Block Parameter: CoilAddress
Type: character vector
Values: '0' | scalar
Default: '0'

To notify the server to write data to a specific discrete input register, specify the discrete input register address in this parameter. For example, for the server to write data to the discrete input register with the address 80, enter 80.

Dependencies

To enable this parameter, set Function to Write Discrete Input.

Programmatic Use

Block Parameter: DiscreteInputAddress
Type: character vector
Values: '0' | scalar
Default: '0'

To notify the server to write data to a specific holding register, specify the holding register address in this parameter. For example, for the server to write data to the holding register with the address 37, enter 37.

Dependencies

To enable this parameter, set Function to Write Holding register.

Programmatic Use

Block Parameter: HoldingRegisterAddress
Type: character vector
Values: '0' | scalar
Default: '0'

To notify the server to write data to a specific input register, specify the input register address in this parameter. For example, for the server to write data to the input register with the address 25, enter 25.

Dependencies

To enable this parameter, set Function to Write Input register.

Programmatic Use

Block Parameter: InputRegisterAddress
Type: character vector
Values: '0' | scalar
Default: '0'
