Miften Posted June 11, 2014 Report Posted June 11, 2014 Good Day Again This time I come to you with question about Modbus control. Im using in my project 3 Modbus modules QJ71MB91. Everything works perfectly, but sometimes errors occurs of reply timeout from slave. I accept that this is normal. But I would need to have control over it! I must prepare an alarm if communication from slaves get disrupted (i.e. wire disconnected, slave turned of = many timeout errors). I worked a simple program which counts number of errors in 1 minute. If its high - it generates an alarm of Modbus Error. Problem occurs when there is only few alarms - I wanted to do "error clear Request" I prepared everything according to manual - but nothing happens, error from Module is not cleared (and it looks bad if Inspector sees on 3 modules Red Error Leds) also I tried to "Force' error led to turn off also I didnt turn it off. And my system have a flaw - if error counter reaches 65000 of errors - which will happen in system in long time - then I will not be able to monitor error - because the counter just stops. And if I understand the manual - only way to reset the counter is to reset the communication ? How to reset it? I cannot restart WHOLE PLC to reset counters of Modbus modules! It would be dumb. I hope this time also You will be able to help me. M.Z. Quote
