Understanding Modbus TCP Protocol and Communication Messages

Understanding Modbus TCP Protocol and Communication Messages

1. Design Philosophy of Modbus Protocol Modbus devices communicate using a master-slave (client-server) architecture, where only one device (the master/client) can initiate transactions (referred to as queries). Other devices (slave/server) respond by providing requested data or performing operations as requested in the query. Slaves are any peripheral devices (I/O converters, valves, network drives, or other … Read more
