Aaron T Posted March 2, 2018 Report Share Posted March 2, 2018 Hello, Does anyone know of any problems with including both a Modbus Config and a Protocol config for the same COM port in the same program? I'm talking to a peripheral device which under certain circumstances may need to be sent an ASCII Protocol command to switch it to Modbus mode, so I will need to be able to do both types of communication in the same program on the same port. Can the two coexist, or will I need to re-execute the appropriate Config block when switching from one communications mode to the other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
