I would have to send Modbus
request for specific data, my problem is that I have to use mobile communication, wifi, connect to a custom electronic card, which is right in Modbus RTU
.
My working code connecting to the electronic board:
#include "connessione.h"
#include <QModbusTcpClient>
#include <QVariant>
#include <QModbusDataUnit>
#include <QDebug>
connessione::connessione(QObject *parent) : QObject(parent)
{
qDebug() << "here debug " << "ok";
clientX = new QModbusTcpClient();
clientX->setConnectionParameter(QModbusDevice::NetworkAddressParameter, "192.168.222.1");
clientX->setConnectionParameter(QModbusDevice::NetworkPortParameter, 5555);
if (clientX->connectDevice())
{
qDebug() << "connected: " << clientX->state();
}
else
{
qDebug() << "ERRORE" << clientX->errorString();
}
}
void connessione::clickButton(){
QModbusDataUnit readUnit(QModbusDataUnit::HoldingRegisters, 0, 1); // just read input register 40006
//qDebug() << "readUnit" << readUnit.RegisterType;
qDebug() << "readUnit" << clientX->state();
if (auto *reply = clientX->sendReadRequest(readUnit, 255)) // client id 255
{
if (!reply->isFinished())
{
// connect the finished signal of the request to your read slot
qDebug() << "connected" << reply->errorString();
connect(reply, &QModbusReply::finished, this, &connessione::readReady);
}
else
{
qDebug() << "Errore" << reply->errorString();
delete reply; // broadcast replies return immediately
}
}
else
{
qDebug() << "Errore" << reply->errorString();
// request error
}
}
void connessione::readReady()
{
QModbusReply *reply = qobject_cast<QModbusReply *>(sender());
if (!reply)
return;
if (reply->error() == QModbusDevice::NoError)
{
const QModbusDataUnit unit = reply->result();
int startAddress = unit.startAddress(); // the start address,
int value = unit.value(0); // value of the start address + 0
qDebug() << "NESSUN ERRORE" << reply->errorString();
}
else
{
qDebug() << "Errore readReady" << reply->errorString();
// reply error
}
reply->deleteLater(); // delete the reply
}
log string TCP sent:
D/libmodbusMobile.so( 8042): (null):0 ((null)): qt.modbus: (TCP client) Sent TCP PDU: 0x0300000001 with tId: 2
this is right: 0x0300000001
But unfortunately, my electronic card, the integrated firmware I can not modify, is right with Modbus RTU
, so I should change 0x0300000001
to 0x010300000001C1C2
where C1 and C2 are the checksums.
I believe that QModbusDataUnit generate buffer to send. So how to change it? Exist manual solution where I build the buffer?
how to change it and create custom send buffer like the example?
Thanks
