Modbus datalogging in an App

Question

0 个投票

Hello all

I am currently trying to develop an instrumentation and control panel for an experiment which interfaces using Modbus RTU. I have a code snippet below for the logging. However ideally, I would also like to be able change some digital output on the device by clicking a button on the computer. The only way I can think of doing this is with an App with callbacks any time the button is pressed. However, since I need to poll the device I can't use a callback for the logging and so can't work out to keep it running continually. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Martin

    data = [data;read(m, 'holdingregs', 1, 1, serverId, 'int16')];
    t = [t,toc];
