modbus_rtu_set_rts - set the RTS mode in RTU
Contents
Description
The modbus_rtu_set_rts() function shall set the Request To Send mode to communicate on a RS485 serial
bus. By default, the mode is set to MODBUS_RTU_RTS_NONE and no signal is issued before writing data on
the wire.
To enable the RTS mode, the values MODBUS_RTU_RTS_UP or MODBUS_RTU_RTS_DOWN must be used, these modes
enable the RTS mode and set the polarity at the same time. When MODBUS_RTU_RTS_UP is used, an ioctl call
is made with RTS flag enabled then data is written on the bus after a delay of 1 ms, then another ioctl
call is made with the RTS flag disabled and again a delay of 1 ms occurs. The MODBUS_RTU_RTS_DOWN mode
applies the same procedure but with an inverted RTS flag.
This function can only be used with a context using a RTU backend.
Errors
EINVAL
The libmodbus backend isn’t RTU or the mode given in argument is invalid.
Example
EnabletheRTSmodewithpositivepolarity.
modbus_t *ctx;
uint16_t tab_reg[10];
ctx = modbus_new_rtu("/dev/ttyS0", 115200, 'N', 8, 1);
modbus_set_slave(ctx, 1);
modbus_rtu_set_serial_mode(ctx, MODBUS_RTU_RS485);
modbus_rtu_set_rts(ctx, MODBUS_RTU_RTS_UP);
if (modbus_connect(ctx) == -1) {
fprintf(stderr, "Connexion failed: %s\n", modbus_strerror(errno));
modbus_free(ctx);
return -1;
}
rc = modbus_read_registers(ctx, 0, 7, tab_reg);
if (rc == -1) {
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", modbus_strerror(errno));
return -1;
}
modbus_close(ctx);
modbus_free(ctx);
