PyModbus Updating Server can't write or read registers










0















I am using this exakt example: https://pymodbus.readthedocs.io/en/v2.1.0/source/example/updating_server.html except changing 'localhost' to the IP adress of the Raspberrypi the program is running on.



The server is up and running, and I can connect to my windows client software (QModMaster).
The code adds "1" to the registers up every 5 seconds.
I tried to read every register (Holding, Coils, Input, Discrete), but I always get the same starting value, "17".
Here's what the shell puts out:



RESTART: /home/pi/Documents/Tests/PythonModbus/pymodbus-master/examples/common/TestUpdatingserver.py
INFO:pymodbus.server.async:Starting Modbus TCP Server on 10.21.39.27:5020

DEBUG:root:new values: [20, 20, 20, 20, 20]
DEBUG:pymodbus.datastore.context:setValues[3] 17:5


and so on....



Could anybody help me or tell me where/in which registers the program writes the values and how I can properly write/read holding registers?



I think it has something to do with this block of code under the updating_writer function from the example, especially with register = 3, but I cannot really grasp what it does. I started diving into the logging module, but It I found it to be a little too complex for me as a beginner:



log.debug("updating the context")
context = a[0]
register = 3
slave_id = 0x00
address = 0x10
values = context[slave_id].getValues(register, address, count=5)
values = [v + 1 for v in values]
log.debug("new values: " + str(values))
context[slave_id].setValues(register, address, values)


Any help is appreciated!

  • If you want to read a register from a modbus-slave device, you should use the ModbusTcpClient. Look at here.
