wiring with arduino as slave and by RS485 to master?

Opened this issue · 2 comments

hi, I appreciate if someone could explain wiring arduino with other device (master) by RS485 or RS232, when using code from this library?

I understand code provided here can act as slave for some modbus rtu master simulation on PC, but what about using it with other devices (PLC, HMI, another arduino)?

Could you explain your setup? RS485 is a pretty simple bus, only 2 wires, if you correctly wire them you can talk with master or slaves

In case you are trying to connect to a PLC or a HMI then connect the A and B pin of the PLC to the RS485 converter module you have used with Arduino. Make sure that A pin should be connected to A and B pin should be connected to B pin respectively (Not like tx->Rx and rx->tx).
