Re: ModIP Development
Hi Chris,
Thanks for your input.

Re: ModIP Development
Here here! I'd like to third what Andy said.
Because while it was kind of like what I said and even closer to what I

...and of course, if the new stuf could have a switchable RS-485/422/232
port to talk to legacy stufff, it would be great!

Re: ModIP Development
Yes, I'm good-looking forward to spring, which is almost here.....
It would be really cool if the modules could be stacked like an Arduino

Re: ModIP Development
Do me a favor if you're going to do anything that looks like an Arduino
shield could you make the pins standard so I can make my own shields to go
on them?
I stopped looking at this stuff a while

Hi Andy,
All is good down under. :) I trust you are well.
Yes, I can accommodate an isolated 0-10V control voltage. I was thinking of a VFD interface module. This would the voltage output include,

Re: ModIP Development
Hi Peter:
How've you been lately?
A couple of ideas I thought of:
-could you include circuitry to make it easy to send an isolated 0-10V
signal to a VFD or other controller?
-It might

ModIP Development
Hi All,
It's been quite a while since this group has been active, a year or so if I'm correct.
Anyhow, I'm in the process of starting back onto the ModIP development. The ModIP is an Ethernet

Re: ModIO Analog Input Variation
You could try putting a 100uF cap between the pins. Also you might try
adding a.1000uF cap on the 5v line to to smooth out the adc ref.

ModIO Analog Input Variation
I don't use my ModIO analog inputs for any application yet, but I am
curious about reducing the ~10% variation I get using a potentiometer

timers in the Common section:

Re: ModIO with libmodbus and Reset
This version works as I think it should. The port close, open, sleep(1),
and dummy read are all needed.

Re: ModIO with libmodbus and Reset
Hi Kirk,
Looking at the program, I can't see where you specify, the timeout period for when the master decides that the slave hasn't responded. I haven't used libmodbus, but there should be a way

Re: ModIO with libmodbus and Reset
Just in case, here is the program below. I'm not that good with C so

order for the change to take effect. The problem is
