I am setting up a DSC modbus server to a serial RTU device. There are 5 registers that I want to read. If I create one bound variable to one register, there are no problems with the server and the data is returned. If I add another bound variable to another register (Now am reading from two registers, I get a bad data quality reading.
Upon investigation I have found out that this device will only read one register at a time. The DSC modbus server is formatting the modbus command to read back an array of registers. I noticed this using a serial port sniffer.
The end application will have a RS485 network with 5 devices and 5 registers from each device.
I wrote a VI to read a series of registers by looping and reading each register and I have no problems. Is it possible to do the same using the DSC modbus server that has multiple bound variables?
Thanks
