controller prototype - block schematic, test example [267.20KB]

Some features of Modbus RTU Implementation in this example:

Despite of that that this prototype configuration mainly has an experimental

purpose it is considerably tested under conditions exactly as it is presented

by the block diagram above.

- Modbus Implementation library set has encapsulated features in relation

to the Modbus standard, like Modbus massage framing, in other words

the user has not to take care about request message interruption,

the controller software measures silent intervals between bytes of a

request message and the start and termination of a message are

recognizable also. Those time intervals are defined by the standard, their

values are in linear correlation at the UART baud rate applied, for baud rates

above 19200 bps, they are constants

- Broadcast is not implemented by the library - the controller ignores zerro

address fields. It should be implemented as the user definable option in the

next version

- Communication feature: Address detection mode exists as an option, on

that way only the address byte is being checked upon received as the first byte

of a request, if it is not matched with the slave address then processing of the rest

of the request is discarded - faster processing, no needless time consumation

but with a disadvantage of no parity checking applied in this mode

- Modbus RTU message protocol, Master - Slave data link,

established over RS-232 physical layer - tested within the range (2400 - 57600) bps

Baud rate is configurable by a library function.

NOTE: There is no RS-232 connection to PC on the photo. It is a picture after loading Modbus_RTU_Slave.hex test example from the package file

external memory block board

Ready for PIC board with PIC18F45K22 and parallel SRAM 128Kx8bit memory. The PIC on the board serves as a serial driver between the main MCU (the same chip on the main development board) and memory. It is programmed by Slave_SPI.hex file contained in the

A stage during the development cycle

NOTE: Although the SRAM chip has 128K capacity space it is used 64K (A0-A15, A16 = ground) for this slave configuration

This is a test program that was made in order to be used for the external memory block functionality testing. Considering that this external memory has an important role in the entire system behavior, before it was used as a functional system component it had had to be well established the internal communication between the main MCU and the external memory block. This is one of assistant programs made in order to help in developing this Modbus RTU library code for slave controllers. Obviously this external memory block is an impractical solution but with some reasons it serves well in an experimental sense. It should be replaced with a common SRAM chip with SPI interface.
