ModBus Reader Description
With electrical devices making day-to-day activities easier, knowledge is required when programming. There are dozens of components connected that make data flow possible so you can interact with a device. As the name suggests, ModBus Reader is a set of tools that allows you to manipulate multiple sessions at once to analyze and edit modbus components.
Multiple modes to connect
Connections need to be properly set up in order for changes to take effect. This can be done by managing your COM ports, with the possibility to manually specify mode, port, bound rate, parity, as well as stop bits or RTS toggling. For a fast approach, you can set the application to gather details automatically. What’s more, connection can be set up via TCP/IP if the device supports this, with an additional option to remote host IP.
Keep a record of activities
What’s more, the application can be used in order to reach either slave or master devices. This is specified from a dedicated menu, with further options letting you input the address and response time. In addition, every action you take can be recorded so you can later on analyze if errors occur, and this greatly comes in handy for debugging.
Work with multiple sessions
When it comes to visuals, the application is kept simple, with tools you trigger opening up in new windows you can arrange in the workspace. Each is equipped with fields for dedicated values and can be handled on the spot.
The application gives you the possibility to work with more projects simultaneously. What’s more, if you’re constantly connected and want to gather data, there’s the possibility to have all tools refreshed to keep the connection updated at all times.
To end with
All things considered, ModBus Reader is a small, yet powerful companion for enthusiasts. The overall design lets you work on more projects, with a simple method of arranging your priorities. Connections can be automated or manually set up either through available COM ports or TCP/IP. It’s not for everyone, because a certain level of knowledge is required to properly use it.
