Hi everybody,In the past I had a serious problem with an FBM230 with Modbus protocol communicating with a slave using RS-232, in RTU mode.When the slave response to any query from the master arrived too fast, the FBM would ignore the response and retry. I finally worked around the problem delaying the response from the slave a few milliseconds using a setting (at the slave device) that was meant for radio communication (RTS to TxD delay).I am now facing the same problem again, with another slave device. The problem is that this time I have no way to delay the slave response. I tried using RTS/CTS handshake on the RS-232 line, but the problem remains. I know for sure that cable and switch settings at the TA are ok because I'm looking at the line with a protocol analyser and see correct query and response messages.I would like to know if somebody else has experienced this problem too.RegardsPablo LioiTOTAL AUSTRAL S.A.Tierra del Fuego - Argentina _______________________________________________________________________ This mailing list is neither sponsored nor endorsed by Invensys Process Systems (formerly The Foxboro Company).
