Modbus: Wrong response from the slave


I am trying to write data to DVP28SS2 controller using minimalmodbus in ASCII mode. I have received a response from the controller but it seems wrong. In particular bits, corresponding to slave address and the function code don't match them.

The correct response for a request (as an example) should look like this: enter image description here

import minimalmodbus
import serial

D40 = 4096 + 40
instrument = minimalmodbus.Instrument(port = 'COM5',mode = 'ascii', slaveaddress = 1,  debug = True)  # port name, slave address (in decimal)

instrument.serial.baudrate = 9600        # Baud
instrument.serial.bytesize = 7
instrument.serial.parity   = serial.PARITY_EVEN
instrument.serial.stopbits = 1
instrument.serial.timeout  = 0.05         # seconds

## Write  ##
data_to_write = 100
instrument.write_register(registeraddress=D40, value=data_to_write,number_of_decimals=0)  

As a result I have received:

MinimalModbus debug mode. Create serial port COM5
MinimalModbus debug mode. Will write to instrument (expecting 17 bytes back): 3A 30 31 31 30 30 30 32 38 30 30 30 31 30 32 30 30 36 34 36 30 0D 0A (23 bytes)

Solution

  • Colleagues told me that the controller that I use has problems with the ASCII standard. When I changed the mode to "RTU", everything worked.
