Modbus enables communication among many devices connected to the same network, for example, a system that measures temperature and humidity and communicates the results to a computer. Modbus is often used to connect a supervisory computer with a remote terminal unit (RTU) in supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems.
Many of the data types are named from its use in driving relays: a single-bit physical output is called a coil, and a single-bit physical input is called a discrete input or a contact. Modbus provide word data types for the number value are named register: a word value for read/write is called a holding register, and a word value for input is called a input register.
Modbus-Master Node is a ROS node, it can be set to access data form Modbus server and provide ROS2 DDS topic for user to subscribe, user can quickly receive Modbus data and do the post data process, for example data parse/store/analysis etc. Below chapter will introduce you about how to use Modbus-Master Node.
