Hi All,
I have a RedLion G310 panel which is talking to a flow meter through Modbus RTU. I need to read just one number (the flow rate) from the meter. The flow meter manual is not very helpful but describes the register as 'Register 0001-0002' Format as 'Real4' and the 'Number' as 2. I assume that this means two registers holding a 64 Bit Real.
In the RedLion I get values when polling registers in the flow meter so the comms is working. However I can't make sense of the numbers.
I am polling address 400001.LONG or 400001.REAL and get a response from both. I presume I also have to poll 400002.LONG or 400002.REAL and then combine these into a 64 Bit double precision real number.
Anyone got any ideas how to do this?
Ta.
