Modbus TCP/RTU bridging #1

Open MissingCat69 opened 3 years ago

MissingCat69 commented 3 years ago

Please post an example file for the bridge.cfg.

I would like to use this to make my existing Modbus TCP server accessible to the RTU gateway.

Regards,

Modbus TCP to RTU bridging is outside the scope of this project at this time but I'll title this ticket as a future feature request. Depending on the direction of data you are trying to move, ModbusMechanic might be a better fit for what you are trying to do. It supports Modbus RTU to Modbus TCP bridging (i.e. TCP masters communicating with RTU slaves) and the gateway is configured via a GUI. ModbusMechanic Feature page / GitHub.

To answer your original request, the cfg file is generated from the GUI. All options are accessible from the GUI. The command line option is to enable the user to transport the cfg file to a headless machine and feed it in via the startup arguments.
