I use the duino as a modbus master and RF module. My Pi talks to it on serial. I talk to temp controllers on modbus. I'll point you to that when I get it up on the repo. C > On Jun 24, 2015, at 2:34 PM, Alex Shepherd wrote: > > Hi Colin, > >> On 25/06/2015, at 1:44 am, Colin Reese wrote:

Alex, The easiest way to do this might be to write a shim that reads/writes the modbus and presents like an owserver on the other end. That way, it would just look like a different bus to all the clients. You would need some kind of config that sets the 1-wire id and the like. How much of the

I recently wrote a simple software serial modbus master for use with an arduino attached to an rs485 transceiver, the max3485 IIRC. Not sure what you're talking with, but this is useful if you've got a serial port available. Haven't quite gotten around to writing it up but it's here. C > On

Hi Guys, I’m in the process of upgrading my heating control system system that controls a Wood-Fired boiler that provides hot water for in-floor (concrete) heating. I’m now using a standalone Autonics TZN4M-BC4 PID controller that has a RTD temperature sensor and 4-20mA output driving a Johnson
