MVP 2023 Ausman Posted August 19, 2019 MVP 2023 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 You will likely have a timeout and number of tries overlap error. For any 485 comms you need to allow for the TOTAL time the plc may spend trying to contact a node, before you switch to the next attempt. A simple example.... If you have a timeout of 1 second and 3 retries, then if there is an error on one node it will take a little over 3 seconds for the plc to ignore the error and reset the connection attempt ready for the next one. Your interval/method of triggering the next call to any node must allow for this possibility. To speed things up you often only do a single try, on the reasoning that if it fails once it will fail again. cheers, Aus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
