The readmodbus command uses MODBUS read register (03) and write register (06) command internally. You only specify the slave ID, the MODBUS register address (0000 to FFFF, which maps to 40001 onwards). What are the expected command to read or write to Delta Inverter(VFD-M)?

READMODBUS and WRITEMODBUS commands are what we implemented in our programming language. When these commands are executed, the output from the PLC serial port will be MODBUS ASCII if the comm port number is 1 or 3, and the output is MODBUS RTU if the comm port number is 11 or 13. Instead of creating a separate command for RTU we decided that it would be easier to just use the COMM port number to distinguish between the two, since both ASCII and RTU are all called MODBUS protocols.

I hope these answers to your questions.

: Hello: Now I want to use a T100MD888+ PLC as Modbus RTU master to commnicate with Delta Inverter(VFD-M).But READMODBUS and WRITEMODBUS instruction look like not support The Modbus protocol.Because Modbus RTU's command format different
: from The READMODUS and WRITEMODBUS instruction format.
: I would hope get help. Thanks.
