is modbus device online

[benanderson_475]

Is there a way in lua to return true or false if a specific modbus device is online? say modbus device at address 3?

Many thanks

You can check it like this

Code:

123456789101112131415161718

-- First parameter is slave ID, second is optional RTU port number (1, 2 or 3; default is 1) function checkrtu(slave, portnr)   local query = 'SELECT active FROM modbus_devices WHERE proto="rtu" AND slave=? AND portnr=?'   if type(portnr) == 'number' and portnr == 2 or portnr == 3 then     portnr = portnr - 1   else     portnr = 0   end   local res = db:getone(query, slave, portnr)   return toboolean(res) end function checktcp(ip, port)   local settings, res   settings = tostring(ip) .. ':' .. tostring(port)   res = db:getone('SELECT active FROM modbus_devices WHERE proto="tcp" AND settings=?', settings)   return toboolean(res) end

Hi
As i can get the result in a group address??
Thanks in advance

[Erwin van der Zwart]

grp.checkwrite('1/1/1', checkrtu(1, 1))

or

grp.checkwrite('1/1/1', checktcp('192.168.0.11', 502))

grp.checkwrite('1/1/1', checkrtu(1, 1))

or

grp.checkwrite('1/1/1', checktcp('192.168.0.11', 502))

thanks Erwin!
