Modbus Master-Slave Example
Overview
These two projects illustrate the communication between Modbus master and slave device in the segment. Master initializes Modbus interface driver and then reads parameters from slave device in the segment. After several successful read attempts slave sets the alarm relay (end of test condition). Once master reads the alarm it stops communication and destroy driver.
The examples:
examples/protocols/modbus/serial/mb_master
- Modbus serial master ASCII/RTUexamples/protocols/modbus/serial/mb_slave
- Modbus serial slave ASCII/RTU
See README.md for each individual project for more information.
How to use example
Hardware Required
This example can be run on any commonly available ESP32 development board. The master and slave boards should be connected to each other through the RS485 interface line driver. See the connection schematic in README.md files of each example.
Configure the project
This example test requires communication mode setting for master and slave be the same and slave address set to 1. Please refer to README.md files of each example project for more information.
About common_component in this example
The folder "mb_example_common" includes definitions of parameter structures for master and slave device (both projects share the same parameters). However, currently it is for example purpose only and can be modified for particular application.

E (1029) MASTER_TEST: Characteristic #7 (RelayP2) read fail, err = 264 (ESP_ERR_INVALID_RESPONSE).
Troubleshooting
If the examples do not work as expected and slave and master boards are not able to communicate correctly it is possible to find the reason for errors. The most important errors are described in master example output and formatted as below:
E (1692332) MB_CONTROLLER_MASTER: mbc_master_get_parameter(111): SERIAL master get parameter failure error=(0x107) (ESP_ERR_TIMEOUT).
ESP_ERR_TIMEOUT (0x107) - Modbus slave device does not respond during configured timeout. Check the connection and ability for communication using uart_echo_rs485 example or increase Kconfig value CONFIG_FMB_MASTER_TIMEOUT_MS_RESPOND (CONFIG_FMB_SERIAL_ASCII_TIMEOUT_RESPOND_MS).
ESP_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED (0x106), ESP_ERR_INVALID_RESPONSE (0x108) - Modbus slave device does not support requested command or register and sent exeption response.
ESP_ERR_INVALID_STATE (0x103) - Modbus stack is not configured correctly or can't work correctly due to critical failure.
