I am reading a modbus holding register and getting 2 words. Hi! If those 2 words contain floating point number formatted as IEEE 754, then proceed as follows: L FirstModbusWord T MW20 L SecondModbusWord T MW22 ... L MD20 Resulting double word [MD20] will hold target floating point number. Maybe you will have to swap words. Regards.
