Official Arduino Modbus RTU library and Controllino Mega

[Uskok]

Hi,

I have problem with official Arduino Modbus RTU library (https://www.arduino.cc/en/ArduinoModbus/ArduinoModbus)

Inside Library, at the end of the file RS485.cpp, instance of RS485 class is initialized.

Code: Select all

RS485Class RS485(SERIAL_PORT_HARDWARE, RS485_DEFAULT_TX_PIN, RS845_DEFAULT_DE_PIN, RS845_DEFAULT_RE_PIN);

This is not fit with hardware inside Controllino Maxi or Mega. I tried to change the initialization to

Code: Select all

RS485Class RS485(SERIAL_PORT_HARDWARE3, CONTROLLINO_UART_TX, CONTROLLINO_RS485_DE, CONTROLLINO_RS485_nRE);

But without success.

The tutorial and library from Controllino web site (https://www.controllino.biz/knowledge-b ... modbusrtu/) is working, but I would like to avoid mixing of two different libraries. We are already using official version Arduino Modbus TCP.

Has anyone encountered this problem and managed to solve it?
Thanks in advance,

Uskok

Hi,

I think that you have done only one small mistake - please try to replace

Code: Select all

CONTROLLINO_UART_TX

with

Code: Select all

CONTROLLINO_RS485_TX

.

And it is also necessary to add

Code: Select all

#include <Controllino.h>

at the top of the RS485.cpp.

I will try to prepare the setup and test it here also.

Good luck!
