Hello, I am using the demo project and I am getting errors reading any registers above 4095. I know the variables in the program can handle the higher numbers, but the program crashes when I try 4096 or above. I assume I am doing something wrong, but not sure what. Any help is appreciated. Thanks !
Hi all I'm running into an error when I try to read over 120 coils. The first 120 read fine but for some reason cannot read over 120.

Quick question. Is there a way to read a specific address? I am seeing an address of 10001, 10002, 10003, etc. Can I check one of those specific addresses for a value by address? Sorry, I am new to programming and PLCs.
You need to install the System.IO.Ports Nudget in the project. In this way I solved the problem.
Greetings dear, I am trying to read a floating record and I can't. I have only been able to write using the following code: modbus.WriteMultipleRegisters(1060,ModbusClient.ConvertFloatToRegisters(float,ModbusClient.RegisterOrder.LowHigh));
Yes. Connections (and thus, clients) are cheap; abandon them at the earliest sign of trouble. That means using Try...Catch where you should toss the connection in the Catch block as basically the only action (don't try to resolve anything, it's useless and more effort than it's worth), abandoning it after any latency longer than you'd like, also after a malformed response, etc. Basically just constantly remake clients/connections (they're more or less one and the same) and everything works perfectly....
Hi Scott, I have the same issue. Did you resolve this ?

Good morning, I am looking for a solution to get full modbus package (not just a value received from the remote device). The best would be to store each byte from the package in the array.

Hello, Is there any way to get a full modbus frame (RTU) received from slave? I can't find any solution in codesamples or in the forum. Anyone can share their code? Thanks a lot.
Dear community, I am learning to use EasyModbus and I am starting with an example that I found in your web page, however reviewing the documentation I could not find an option that allows me to print the register address that I am reading, for example I want to save in a database the following information: Registration Address, Registration Value. Does anyone know how to get this value? Maybe my question is too basic? thank you for your kind attention.
I cannot find any example where I can read a 32-bit float register with or without transformation between hex and decimal.
I cannot find any Java client example where I can connect to a Modbus server with several Modbus units (different Modbus ID's)?
numericUpDown1.Value = (decimal) ModbusClient.ConvertRegistersToFloat(modbusClient.ReadHoldingRegisters(5, 2));//float // numericUpDown2.Value = (decimal) ModbusClient.ConvertRegistersToFloat(modbusClient.ReadHoldingRegisters(9, 2));//float // numericUpDown6.Value = ModbusClient.ConvertRegistersToInt(modbusClient.ReadHoldingRegisters(13, 2));//dword // numericUpDown3.Value = ModbusClient.ConvertRegistersToInt(modbusClient.ReadHoldingRegisters(15, 2));//dword // numericUpDown7.Value = (decimal) ModbusClient.ConvertRegistersToDouble(modbusClient.ReadHoldingRegisters(20,...
I have this similar problem using VS2019 vb.net. This is due to the case-sensitive in the holding register variable and class. Unless EasyModbus modify the variable name to some different, else, VB.net is not supported.
I have tried to use EasyModbus Master mode. When I try to update my holding register with the value 987005.3, the first 16bit register value = 18800 and second 16 bit register = 63445. However, since the holding register for EasyModbus only support Short (16 bit signed int), the 2nd register value was changes to -2091. Is there any way to support unsigned int16 for the register? Otherwise, how do you allow us to update the holding register with the float value 987005.3?
I have tried using the EasyModbus library to build a TCP Modbus client. I added the .dll in the dependencies of my project and I can use the library and compile my solution but when I try to run my manual test I get an error telling me that the loader can't find a library : System.IO.Ports version 4.0.3.3. Here is the detailed error message: System.IO.FileNotFoundException HResult=0x80070002 Message=Could not load file or assembly 'System.IO.Ports, Version=4.0.3.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=cc7b13ffcd2ddd51'....
You need to install the number 3. The library.
Is your library doing this It gives this error every 1 or 2 hours Also, I don't understand the license completely, is this license paid?

please share some code and make sure that your device is reachable and responding properly.
Getting this error " Unable to read data from the transport connection: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond." When trying to read input registers from multiple modbus device at the scan rate of every one second.
The correct way would be to change the Property "UnitIdentifier" before every request, according to the slave you want to read/write data.
Hi, I'm trying out the library in C# for my Modbus RTU application. I'm trying to write single registers to multiple clients. They are all on the RS485 bus, but with different addresses. In the example code I can set the address of the client by using .UnitIdentifier = <id> before connecting to the COM port. Is there a way to include the address parameter in the .WriteSingleRegister()? So that I can communicate with multiple slaves on the same COMport? Thanks!</id>
There is a static Method in the ModbusClient class; public static string ConvertRegistersToString(int[] registers, int offset, int stringLength) public static int[] ConvertStringToRegisters(string stringToConvert)
How to sent string Modbus TCP/TP .what should i do ?
Usually there is no difference reading Holding Registers or Input Registers, Perhaps the Register address is not 30001? Sometimes the "3" Prefix indecates that it refers to the "Input Register" Block. It might be address "1"?

Cheers to everybody, In order to make some kind of homebrewed software to communicate via Modbus TCP Iskra MC devices, using Visual C.net or VB.net, I was suggested to download "Easy Modbus TCP.NET Package v 5.5".

Can anyone kindly tell me, which of them do I need to install? Best wishes.
Totally agree!.... For commercial use , no harm in paying a small amount to the developers. Developers very much deserve it.
Suggest Keep MIT as well as a Paid option through Patreon or something like that.
I understand, the license is meanwhile updated ti MIT, but on the other hand for commercial applations doesn't it makes sense to pay a small amount for a commercial product (Since you also wan't to get pad for your work)?
I'm afraid we too had to look else where for a solution because of the licence in place.
Same problem with the licence. GPL forced me to change to different library. In testing this is still proven to be the most stable java based library. Can this library or just the Modbus/TCP subset be purchased with less restrictive or even proprietary licence?
Same problem here.. GPL makes it useless for any industrial application..
[This is continuation of my above post with the Win 7 and Win10 examples] Or you can call the constructor on a Win7machine like so $MBClient = New-Object -TypeName EasyModbus.ModbusClient -ArgumentList "192.168.40.112",502. Both my Win10 and Win7 machines have all the same .NET libraries installed , but produce different behaviors.
Yeah this issue is persistent. In order to get it to work with powershell on windows 7 you have to initialize the client as $MBClient = New-Object -TypeName EasyModbus.ModbusClient and then set the IP Address and Port from the propeties , otherwise on a Win10 machine you can just do $MBClient = [EasyModbus.ModbusClient]::new("192.168.40.112", 502)
I'm interested in the result of this, because I might have similar experience: A lot CRC errors with a Win7 machine but on the scope the data looks fine and with other tools (like ModbusPoll) I don't get any errors.
I recently was encountering a similar problem while using an RS232 to RS485 adapter. Sporatic CRC check failures would occur during long tests due to a leading zero value. I suggest re-assigning COM1 to another COM port as Windows 7 32-bit uses COM1 as a debug port for some reason (Windows 7 64-bit does not). You can also enable the FIFO buffers and move the sliders up to the maximum. Lastly, make sure you're running EasyModbus 2.9 or newer as I think there may have been an issue in version 2.8....

That is NOT a Modbus Issue, thats simple C# programming and you'll find some anwers already in this duscussion (or ask google). A Modbus Register contains 16 Bit and is handles is signed value -32768 - 32768. If you need values between 0 - 65535, you have to convert.
I have attempted a few things but am not sure this is what I need. Should the standard method int[] ReadHoldingRegisters(int startingAddress, int quantity) be able to read int values above 32767? It appears tha the other methods combine multiple registers to create either the double, or float. I was able to get the FLoat conversion to work fine on registers that use IEEE -754 , but in this case I just want to read one register that has a value that reaches 65,000 plus. I feel I am just using the...
I think the answer is pretty obvious, your Modbus Device is not anwering the request. (I think yo u did not forget to connect first?)
I also have a similar issue. I am trying to read input registers, but have no idea how i shoud do it. I am doing like this: Console.WriteLine("Value of Input Reg #10: " + modbusClient.ReadInputRegisters(9, 1)[0].ToString()); But it is giving me the same error: No response from Modbus Slave.
Hi I don't fully understand your code. But you definitelly have to check the mapping of your device, that has to match with your Modbus reading. It sounds to me that your trying to read a Holding Register to determine the state of a digital input, or did I missunderstand something?
Hi, I am trying to use your DLL in a VB.net application to read and write via modbus to a Schnieder distributed IO device.

Hello, I have a question for consult, I make a c# Project based on easymodbus version 5.5. Used for slave communication. It is normal to read and write separately with MODBUS client.

Hi Alessandro, yes I am meanwhile aware of that issue. Since I don't use VB, I never had that issue. Yes, I would appreciate if you would submit a commit for this.
As per subject, since EasyModbus does not support modbusRTU over TCP, is it possible to use UDP IPendpoint to be set to tcp gateway of RTU slaves?
In ModbusServer, there exist both object coils and class Coils (same for other 3 types of Modbus objects). Setting the coils array in VB.net (which doesn't differentiate between uppercase and lowercase) fails as there is a ambiguity between the object and the class from which the object is instantiated. I solved by renaming the 4 classes. I can submit a commit for this.
Hi, I have been using the .NET library for a few days now and have had no problems with it until now, I hope you can help me out. I'm writing in C# and I have 2 slaves (ID 1 and ID 2) connected on the bus. Until now I changed the parameter .UnitIdentifier before writing to a register, writing the data in order to the 2 slaves but I have now realised that, in my application, I could actually write the same data to the 2 slaves at the same time. This would free up the bus sooner since no response is...
I am not sure if your Omron PLC proviedes Modbus Slave funktionalities, but you are using the constructor for Modbus-TCP if you try to connect via serial Port that can only be Modbus-RTU.
