Modbus Error Log - khalil - 18.04.2021

Hello
I have errors in the Modbus error Logs but the slave devices are working, I can read and write.
errors are: 
- read failed: operation timed out
- read failed: response not from requested slave
I got a lot of these errors in the error log

is it ok to see these errors? 

Note that I have slave devices on Modbus TCP with no errors

It means that there are some minor issues with the RS485 communication.
Some things to consider:
1. Connect GND between all Modbus devices (read this: https://store.chipkin.com/articles/rs485-rs485-cables-why-you-need-3-wires-for-2-two-wire-rs485)
2. Install 120 ohm terminator resistor on both ends of the RS485 bus
3. Topology: daisy-chain connection is recommended. Short stubs are OK as well, never use star topology
4. Try using a lower baud rate if devices allow this
