Modbus support for Emacs
This software is intended to allow Emacs to communicate with Modbus slave devices.
There will be two layers; an API layer and a sample application that allows Emacs to interact with Modbus devices. The application will allow simple setting and retrieving of values as well as sending arbitrary function requests.
Modbus is a protocol created by Modicon to enable communication between field devices and control devices in industrial applications. The protocol was opened and can be implemented license-free. It is currently overseen by the Modbus Organization.
I love Emacs and work with SCADA for a living. That means I do weird things, like write tank strapping generators in Common Lisp and fill my Emacs lisp directory with functions that make working in Wonderware less unpleasant.
