Dear All,

I would like to take this opportunity and provide you with the fruits of my software development on Modbus RTU Master Communication function blocks over the past years. The function blocks are running on S7-300, S7-400 and S7-400H CPU’s and do not require any additional hardware dongle to be purchased and inserted into the communication processor module. I tried to develop these function blocks from a user perspective in order to make its use as easy as possible for the programmer. Multiple requests to more than one slave connected to the communication processor in a daisy-chain/multi-drop network can be configured within no time.

The following SIMATIC S7 communication processors are supported:

• CP340
• CP341
• CP441-1
• CP441-2

GENERAL INFORMATION & SUPPORT

For installation, connection and interface configuration of your communication processor module kindly follow its respective documentation.

I also advise you to take some time and go through the general information about Modbus provided by our forum member smiffy. Especially if you are a beginner in Modbus, seek for support or just want to learn more about it.

This software driver is running on several plants in the oil and gas industrysince many years without any known issues. In case you face any problem with the provided function blocks place a comment here in the forum and I will try to give you support. Additionally I would appreciate if users who have already successfully implemented the communication driver into their project will support me in that.

I hope tomake your life a bit easier with this development.

With Best Regards

The attached program files need to be retrieved within the SIMATIC Manager.

Currently there is only one manualfor theCP340version but the others are all working in the same way just with different function blocks.
