Hi! Today, I've done a prototype to measure high currents (80kA) through a shunt and an external ADC, then the Arduino send that to a PLC 1200. Thanks to your (great) tutorial, I've done that in few hours. Thank you very much!
Thanks for this great tutorial. Are you sure about the the terminology you explained in the beginning of the video? I think Modbus server and Modbus Master are almost the same thing. It is correct for Modbus client and Modbus slave. But you mentioned something different. Could you check that please?
Think I may have used server for slave which makes sense to me. It was a long time ago though so not completely sure. I may have mentioned client for Master which again makes sense to me. Hope that helps
do have one on esp32 serial2 modbus rtu rs485 19200n1 master read input-registers 30001 30002 from slave-1 digital panel-meter-modbus then display the values serial monitor? great modbus video, thank you 🙂
Hello sir, first i would like to thank you for all your videos. If you don't mind i have a question for you: actually i'm working on a project where i need to use Tia Portal as an HMI (with an S7-1200 which is already done and works for me), but the problem is i that can't connect my PLC directly to my system, so i have to use an Arduino between the PLC and my system. For that, is there a way to make the connection you already made between Aduino and PLC but these time conversly? what i mean is i need to send data from PLC (specifically my HMI) to my Arduino. And thank you again for your time.
I believe this is possible Sadki, it's a matter of changing the roles. What was the slave now becomes the master and vice versa. I think the information is in the PLC manual and the Arduino notes I show in the video. I haven't done it yet but I'm confident it is possible. God luck.
I’m hoping this works over WiFi connection between S7 and Arduino? I have an Arduino Braccio shield on top of a Uno WiFi R2, adding the Ethernet shield causes the Braccio (robot arm) to fail.
@@MarioCrispino well, I’ve tried tonight following your tutorial… and it doesn’t seem to be connecting. The S7 looks like it’s waiting for the Server (Arduino) to connect. I’m guessing there maybe some Arduino code changes required to use WiFi rather than Ethernet. Arduino is new to me so I need to sit and understand more. I think tomorrow I’ll connect the Ethernet shield and disconnect the Braccio and see if it can connect over Ethernet, I’ll know them if it’s Arduino or S7 issue.
I always get a following fault message: Arduino\libraries\Modbus\src/Modbus.h:10:10: fatal error: vector: No such file or directory #include I tried to implement the vector libary in the arduino IDE, but this doesn't seem to work. Are there any solutions for this?
Unfortunately I don't have time to even get my own work done at the moment. Good luck, if you understand the basics about using one pot then it shouldn't be too much of a leap for more of them.
Yes this is definitely possible but I don't have the time to go through it. I'm sure there are a few videos on RUclips about this that explain it well.
If the program is working and everything communicating then the ping should work. I had this problem and found that my hub was not suitable and my Arduino could not communicate with my PLC and PC. Once I replaced it everything was fine. Hope that helps.
I have tried to port this code to the rp2040. The rp2040 uses ‘C’ code and I needed to modify the headers. Unfortunately I was not able to adapt the code. I wonder if anyone else has tried to port the Modbus tcp code to stm32 or rp2040 (I feel I’ve that they are both arm cortex M0).
@@MarioCrispino I started to implement the libraries step by step. In android the compiler errors were hard to follow so I moved to VS code which is supported by the Raspberry PI organization. This is where I found the compiler error that “Class” is not recognized and guessed that the pi pico did not support it. I am trying again step by step. My starting point is tcp functional code. Thank you for the excellent video and help.
I now have it working with the RP2040, the RP2040 has a different pin out, I also had to delete the default Ethernet libraries and install the wiznet library. The libraries work really well and are very easy to implement. The next step is to port then to freeRTOS.
The shield needs a network connection to a hub/router and it needs to be mounted on the Arduino. Then the laptop needs to be connected to the hub/router too.
@@MarioCrispino thanks, since I have a router that means I can be able to do this project, right? The network should be Ethernet connection in this case.
hi, very good guide, but i havent now a s71200 to test, can i try the guide with my tiaportal 15.1 with plc sim? or i try many tolls for modbus but dont work ruclips.net/video/7EHTXIpfSks/видео.html can you give me a help to verify your arduino software ty in advance!
@@MarioCrispino i try plc sim but dont work beacause the simulation cut off every connection to virtualize plc, but i chek the arduino function by this free software modbus pool www.modbustools.com/download.html , but to read the arduino modbus tcp you need to set data type: (R04) and starting address 101. the question now is to read many arduino tcp what we need to do? a loop to switch every arduino ip can work?
your is the best straight forward vid that shows clearly how to configure modbus

Great stuff Tristan. Sounds very technical.
Thanks for the tutorial, im using ESP32 instead of arduino with ethernet shield. Thank you so much
You are welcome! Very glad you like the tutorial.
How did you go about it? Is it wifi connection?

great modbus video, thank you 🙂
Have you ever used the library Settimino to make a conection Arduino - PLC?
Great tutorial btw
Don't think I've ever used that library. Glad you enjoyed the tutorial
Great tutorial
Glad you like it Merek

Ok, good news. The Arduino with the ETH shield works. I know my Siemens config is correct. Now, I need to amend the Arduino code to work via WiFi. 🤔
Sounds like you are getting there. Great stuff!
@@marklee_2209 Have you found anything working over WiFi? I tried the Eth method and is working fine, but want to go over WiFi.
would be really helpful if you would give us the link for the libraries you downloaded in Arduino IDE
github.com/andresarmento/modbus-arduino
you can find it in the above link. Thank you
Glad you found the link. I think I showed the link in this video ruclips.net/video/IZjzgbkkImU/видео.html
I always get a following fault message:

thanks sir for the nice video.
how do i configure my Arduino as master in tia potal?
thanks
can i configure it the same way for plc
I've not done this yet but it shouldn't be too difficult to switch them around depending on what you are trying to achieve.
can you show me how to code when i have two more potentiometer, please help me
Unfortunately I don't have time to even get my own work done at the moment. Good luck, if you understand the basics about using one pot then it shouldn't be too much of a leap for more of them.
Hello sir, can you please help me on how to communicate the laptop and arduino using modbus protocol.
Yes this is definitely possible but I don't have the time to go through it. I'm sure there are a few videos on RUclips about this that explain it well.
Hi, at home my code is working but when I do a ping test, I don't have any signal you have any idea?
If the program is working and everything communicating then the ping should work. I had this problem and found that my hub was not suitable and my Arduino could not communicate with my PLC and PC. Once I replaced it everything was fine. Hope that helps.
What type of ethernet switch did you use?
I just used and old router
buy the cheapest 5 channel ethernet switch you can get it's just plug and play
I have tried to port this code to the rp2040. The rp2040 uses ‘C’ code and I needed to modify the headers. Unfortunately I was not able to adapt the code.
I wonder if anyone else has tried to port the Modbus tcp code to stm32 or rp2040 (I feel I’ve that they are both arm cortex M0).
Interesting David. Could I ask why you are trying that? Good idea though.
Are you trying it step by step as a RP would scan a different way to a PLC? I'm sure it can be done but might be quite involved.

Well done David, I think you should make a video about it and place it on RUclips.
Wait whut, slave = server and master = client. Who thought that was a good naming scheme.
I agree.
Sir, can I connect arduino shield straight to my laptop,So that it acts as the real plc? I don't have enough money to buy s7-1200.
The shield needs a network connection to a hub/router and it needs to be mounted on the Arduino. Then the laptop needs to be connected to the hub/router too.
@@MarioCrispino thanks, since I have a router that means I can be able to do this project, right? The network should be Ethernet connection in this case.
What will you do for the PLC? SIM?
@@MarioCrispino yes.
