mbpoll is a command line utility to communicate with ModBus slave (RTU or TCP).
It uses libmodbus.
This is a multiplatform project, the compilation was tested on GNU Linux
x86 and x86_64, Microsoft Windows 7 x86 and GNU Linux ARM 6 (Raspbian).
Although the syntax of these options is very close modpoll proconX program,
it is a completely independent project.
mbpoll can:
- read discrete inputs
- read and write binary outputs (coil)
- read input registers
- read and write output registers (holding register)
The reading and writing registers may be in decimal, hexadecimal or floating single precision.
The installation instructions are in the INSTALL file.
For example, for a debian system:
-
Install libmodbus (Version >= 3.1.4) :
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential libtool git-core $ git clone https://github.com/stephane/libmodbus.git $ cd libmodbus $ ./autogen.sh $ ./configure $ make -j4 $ sudo make install
You can also install it with apt if the version of libmodbus is greater than or equal to 3.1.4.
For example to query a debian system:
$ apt-cache show libmodbus-dev
-
Install piduino if you want to manage the RS485 with a GPIO signal:
$ sudo apt-get install libcppdb-dev pkg-config libsqlite3-dev sqlite3 $ git clone https://github.com/epsilonrt/piduino.git $ cd piduino $ git checkout dev $ mkdir build $ cd build $ cmake .. $ make -j4 $ sudo make install
-
Generate Makefile with cmake:
cd mbpoll mkdir build cd build cmake .. -
Compile and install mbpoll:
make -j4 sudo make install
If you prefer, you can in the place of direct compilation create a package and install it:
make package
sudo dpkg -i * .deb
That's all !
The following command is used to read the input registers 1 and 2 of the slave at address 33 connected through RTU /dev/ttyUSB2 (38400 Bd)
mbpoll -a 33 -b 38400 -t 3 -r 1 -c 2 /dev/ttyUSB2

A complete help is available with the -h option:
usage : mbpoll [ options ] device|host [ writevalues... ] [ options ]
ModBus Master Simulator. It allows to read and write in ModBus slave registers
connected by serial (RTU only) or TCP.
Arguments :
device Serial port when using ModBus RTU protocol
COM1, COM2 ... on Windows
/dev/ttyS0, /dev/ttyS1 ... on Linux
/dev/ser1, /dev/ser2 ... on QNX
host Host name or dotted IP address when using ModBus/TCP protocol
writevalues List of values to be written.
If none specified (default) mbpoll reads data.
If negative numbers are provided, it will precede the list of
data to be written by two dashes ('--'). for example :
mbpoll -t4:int /dev/ttyUSB0 -- 123 -1568 8974 -12
General options :
-m # mode (rtu or tcp, TCP is default)
-a # Slave address (1-255 for rtu, 0-255 for tcp, 1 is default)
for reading, it is possible to give an address list
separated by commas or colons, for example :
-a 32,33,34,36:40 read [32,33,34,36,37,38,39,40]
-r # Start reference (1 is default)
-c # Number of values to read (1-125, 1 is default)
-u Read the description of the type, the current status, and other
information specific to a remote device (RTU only)
-t 0 Discrete output (coil) data type (binary 0 or 1)
-t 1 Discrete input data type (binary 0 or 1)
-t 3 16-bit input register data type
-t 3:hex 16-bit input register data type with hex display
-t 3:int 32-bit integer data type in input register table
-t 3:float 32-bit float data type in input register table
-t 4 16-bit output (holding) register data type (default)
-t 4:hex 16-bit output (holding) register data type with hex display
-t 4:int 32-bit integer data type in output (holding) register table
-t 4:float 32-bit float data type in output (holding) register table
-0 First reference is 0 (PDU addressing) instead 1
-B Big endian word order for 32-bit integer and float
-1 Poll only once only, otherwise every poll rate interval
-l # Poll rate in ms, ( > 100, 1000 is default)
-o # Time-out in seconds (0.01 - 10.00, 1.00 s is default)
Options for ModBus / TCP :
-p # TCP port number (502 is default)
Options for ModBus RTU :
-b # Baudrate (1200-921600, 19200 is default)
-d # Databits (7 or 8, 8 for RTU)
-s # Stopbits (1 or 2, 1 is default)
-P # Parity (none, even, odd, even is default)
-R [#] RS-485 mode (/RTS on (0) after sending)
Optional parameter for the GPIO RTS pin number
-F [#] RS-485 mode (/RTS on (0) when sending)
Optional parameter for the GPIO RTS pin number
-h Print this help summary page
-V Print version and exit
-v Verbose mode. Causes mbpoll to print debugging messages about
its progress. This is helpful in debugging connection...
