Labview Modbus Serial connection

Does anyone have a labview example code on how to read a slave device holding register using Labview Serial port connection. Labview will be my master and it will read slave device holding register through its serial port. I could not see any example on the labview Help section and I am in need of an example to use as my starting point. Any help is well appreciated.

Download the Modbus library.  They have examples in there.

If you need to use Modbus RTU master then use the function in the image attached.

Tips:

Connect Create master(New serial master)->Read holding register(or)write holding register->shutdown vi.

Before run VI set baurd rate, parity, unit ID & com port in create master vi

Set the holding register address in Read holding register vi

There are two other Modbus APIs available:

Modbus Master by Plasmionique Inc.

LabVIEW Modbus API 

All come with examples.

 

If you happen to own the RT- or DSC-module you'll will find yet another Modbus-API integrated in your palette.
