ReadHoldingRegister
This command requests the analogue holding register values starting from the start RegAddress and going through to RegAddress plus RegCount.
Returns 0 for success, 1 for CRC fail and 255 for no reply.
Parameters
- UINT SlaveID
- The ID of the MODBUS slave
- UINT RegAddress
- Address: 0=40001, 1=40002, ...
- UINT RegCount
- Number of consecutive registers to read, starting from RegAddress
Return value
ForceMultipleCoils
This command writes the contents of a series of discrete coils at the location starting at CoilAddress through to CoilAddress + CoilCount.
Returns 0 for success, 1 for CRC fail and 255 for no reply.
Parameters
- BYTE SlaveID
- The ID of the MODBUS slave - Used for TCP to Serial forwarders
- UINT CoilAddress

- UINT CoilCount
- Number of consecutive coils to try and read
- BYTE CoilData
- An array of bytes each containing 8 1-bit coil values
Return value
ForceSingleCoil
This command writes the contents of a discrete coil at the location CoilAddress.
Returns 0 for success, 1 for CRC fail and 255 for no reply.
Parameters
- BYTE SlaveID
- The ID of the MODBUS slave

- 0=Off, 1=On
Return value
ReadCoilStatus
This command requests the ON/OFF status of discrete coils starting from the start CoilAddress and going through to CoilAddress plus CoilCount.
Returns 0 for success, 1 for CRC fail and 255 for no reply.
Parameters
- UINT SlaveID

Return value
ReadInputStatus
This command requests the ON/OFF status of discrete inputs starting from the start DataAddress and going through to DataAddress plus DataCount.
Returns 0 for success, 1 for CRC fail and 255 for no reply.
Parameters

- The ID of the MODBUS slave
- UINT DataAddress
- Input Address: 0=10001, 1=10002, 2=10003, ...
- UINT DataCount
- Number of consecutive inputs to read, starting from RegAddress
Return value
PresetSingleRegister
This command writes the contents of a analogue output holding registerl at the location RegAddress.
Returns 0 for success, 1 for CRC fail and 255 for no reply.
Parameters

- UINT RegAddress
- Address: 0=40001, 1=40002, ...
- UINT RegValue
- Value to send to the selected register
Return value
GetResponseInt
Reads a 16-bit value from the last received response.
The Index parametes specifies the byte index of the value to read back.
Parameters
- BYTE Index
