  1. I've tried doing the same commands from the command line after disabling the C apps, specifically Modbusconnect(0) ModbusRegisterRead(0, 32768, 16, P8192) And I do get the right data into the array then. This makes me think that there's something wrong with my arrays of short I'm using for read and write buffers. I just verified that ModbusRegisterRead in the terminal uses Function 4 (read input registers) and ModbusRegisterRead in the C app uses Function 3 (read multiple registers), which in this case pulls from two different data banks. ModbusRegisterWrite appears to use Function 16 in both cases. This still does not explain why I do not get anything valid into the read or write buffers.
  2. Hi, I seem to have an issue with my Modbus code throwing junk around. What I'm seeing is that my writes are sending out some data, but it's not what I've written into the writebuf. The reads are getting back what I've put in the remote registers, but they're not being passed to the readbuf. firmware is 1.4.0.27. Global defines of variables: global mbarray1in(4), mbarray1out(4), mbarray2in(4),mbarray2out(4), modbusplcsocketerror, modbusplclinuxerror, modbuscamsocketerror, modbuscamlinuxerror, modbuscamstate(2), mbcount(2), mberr, mberr2, pincount, pincoarse(6), pinfine(6), pincounter, coarsepos(8), finepos(8), Solenoidlookup(8), UnloaderPos, ClearPos, MyFloatTest; The app itself: #include // Global Gp Shared memory pointer //---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- // pp_proj.h is the C header for accessing PMAC Global, CSGlobal, Ptr vars // _PPScriptMode_ for Pmac Script like access global & csglobal // global Mypvar - access with "Mypvar" // global Myparray(32) - access with "Myparray(i)" // csglobal Myqvar - access with "Myqvar(i)" where "i" is Coord # // csglobal Myqarray(16) - access with "Myqvar(i,j)" where "j" is index // _EnumMode_ for Pmac enum data type checking on Set & Get global functions // Example // global Mypvar // csglobal Myqvar // "SetGlobalVar(Myqvar, data)" will give a compile error because its a csglobal var. // "SetCSGlobalVar(Mypvar, data)" will give a compile error because its a global var. //------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ // #define _PPScriptMode_ // uncomment for Pmac Script type access // #define _EnumMode_ // uncomment for Pmac enum data type checking on Set & Get global functions // uncomment for Pmac Script type access //---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- // To use the functions defined in the Libraries, create a prototype of the function // in this file or in a header file that is included in this file. // For Example: // If a Library project has been created with the following function and you intend to use // that function in this C file: // int MyFunction(int MyVar) // { // return MyVar*10; // } // Then a prototype of this function must be created in this c file or in a // header file that is being included in this file.

  3. Hi, Quick background: I'm coming from the Turbo PMAC and have done very little C programming in a true multitasking environment. I'm working on a system with the Power PMAC acting as a client to two Modbus TCP server units. I was originally setting them up to use two identical background C applications, which are modified from the Modbus examples. I was expecting the system to automatically start them both. This would let me vary the update rates easily. However, I found out that only one program runs by default. So, I feel I'm missing something basic. I can do some rearranging to combine the two into a state machine, but I feel I'm missing the point. I do have them both writing to different sockets and different data structures, so they're not stepping on each other's toes.
