Thank you very much for this video. I have managed to connect a Siemens S71212 to a little AB Panelview over RS485 with the help and encouragement it gave me. I did actually manage this using the more recent Modbus blocks. Something that people might overlook is the importance of setting the .MODE parameter of the Load MB block DB correctly. This parameter - hidden away -defaults to zero and must be set to 4 for two-wire half duplex operation as here.
I know im asking randomly but does any of you know a trick to get back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly forgot my login password. I would love any help you can give me.
@Jad Rene thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process now. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
18:40 that's because the MB_MASTER function works by accessing the memory by address with the PEEK/POKE instructions, which can only be done with unoptimized datablocks.
Thanks a lot brother. Why I am sharing my review is because even the hardware connection error between ports A & B happened to me and rectified it by seeing your video. By following your detailed explanation in hardware and software settings was able to obtain the required result. Thanks once again
Realy top-quality instructional video. Will be using the knowledge learned here to start communicating with some ABB inverters for an upcoming project. Many thanks :)
Nice Video, thank you for this! If you don't want to configurate your hardware every time you, also can save your setup in the library and use it per "drag and drop".
Hello, I am trying to congigure my PLC as video but "DONE" in first MB_COMM staying at FALSE and not seems values to registers. What may happened? Thank you....
I can’t say for sure, but I’ve heard that it’s Siemens that have the A and B/+ and - reversed on the PLC, when compared to most other Modbus devices. Someone else might correct me if I’m wrong.
You rock, thanks for this video. The reverse in wires is a problem from Siemens side or the Slave? Both my slaves had reverse wirings, so I believe the problem is from Siemens side!
Thanks very much! Yeah, since I published this video I've learnt (especially from the comments) that what Siemens classes as "A" and "B" are the reverse of what is general convention in Modbus......... With Siemens, this doesn't surprise me at all!!
Sorry, I'm a little bit confused! I am going to monitor and control one protection relay by S7-1200 through RS485. I cannot find physical Modbus slave in your program! is it easy to eliminate laptop(as interface) and directly connect modbus slave to S7-1200? How can control 3 slave by this PLC?
Yes, I was just using my laptop here as a simulation slave device. Normally the PLC would be directly connected to the field devices through its CB1241 module. You can definitely control 3 field devices with this. Standard Modbus has an address space of 255. with reserved regions that means you can have up to 247 devices connected.
Hi junt a quick question, I am doing what you say in the video, but there is something weird, even if I don connect a equipment to the serial port still the instrucctions show some activitities for example the comm load intruction shows DONE and the master intruction shows error how this can be?
Do you mean comm load flags done when you dont have a CB1241 attached to the PLC or you don't have the field device connected to the CB1241? Comm load will execute and be fine even if you don't connect anything to the network. it is just establishing itself with the hardware and is slave irrespective.
Hello, could you please tell me how you added the older version of the MODBUS folder? It would be highly appreciated! (I only have the folder "MODBUS (RTU)")

You have no idea how desperately needy this video for beginner is.
Thanks Buddy
Thanks very much! that's exactly why I made this channel! (Although I hope you meant needed and not needy! haha)

@Jad Rene it worked and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my ass!
@Darian Wesley You are welcome =)

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Thanks very much!
Ahaaah! And that needs fixed adresses instead of bouncing around pointers. Am I correct?
Thanks champ. Easy to follow along and start with all the basics. You have saved me an enormous amount of heratache.
Great to hear! thanks for watching!

Thanks for this video. Which is very important to me for my new project . Thanks again.
Glad it was helpful! thanks for watching!
Thank you for such a nice tutorial 👌👌
Super helpful, thanks so much for doing the video, saved me loads of time!!! (And frustration!)
Glad it helped!
Very helpful vid! It worked for me using CM1241 and termination resistors. Thank you again!
Great to hear! Yeah, the termination resistors really come into play on larger RS485 networks! Glad I was some help!
Thank you Gov'ner!
Sorry, regarding the ''M'' terminal, could this be used for the shielding of the cable?
Looking forward for more videos 🙂👍
Best Video in the f***** Internet!! Clean and simpel. Nice Work!
Wow, thanks! Might get that tattooed on me!!
Thank you very much for the video! This helped me a lot! I was able to communicate a DGT4X weight module with S7-1200 with CB1241 modbus rtu
Really glad it helped! It's an odd learning curve with the Siemens software!!
Realy top-quality instructional video. Will be using the knowledge learned here to start communicating with some ABB inverters for an upcoming project. Many thanks :)
Glad it was helpful! Thanks very much! :-)
Very helpful tutorial👌🏻 thank you 🙏🏻🌷
My pleasure!
nice video helped me about basic of modbus
VERY USEFUL AND EASY TO UNDERSTAND OF MB-MASTER THANKS.....
Thanks very much! very appreciated!
Fantastic!
I think you just saved me from pulling my hair out for days!
Nice Video, thank you for this!
If you don't want to configurate your hardware every time you, also can save your setup in the library and use it per "drag and drop".
Aaaand, I don't think your USB to RS485 converter is misslabeled.
Siemens uses T/RA for connecting with B and vice versa...for whatever reason.
@@ChG85 really? FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU iI've been battling for weeks with a sensor ... I'm gonna try that one today.
@@ivoboric please give Feedback after trying 👍
@@ChG85 He is still trying to connect that sensor.
Outstanding. Welldone on an excellent video.
Thank you! Cheers!
aint even watched the video but the first 20 seconds were ace
Very helpfull! thank you
You're welcome!
Excellent!
Many thanks!
I HAVE TRIAL TO SLAVE BUT DONT DATA SEND
MY PLC IS A SLAVE AND MY DCS IS A MASTER.HOW TO WORK THIS TYPE COMMUANICATION
Thanks man
Thanks a lot for this video !
Hello, I am trying to congigure my PLC as video but "DONE" in first MB_COMM staying at FALSE and not seems values to registers. What may happened? Thank you....
Can you do one for multiple RS-485 to control different modbus devices at the same time from one plc please?
I have a doubt i have a cpu 1200 1515 dc/dc/dc how to know that which Tia portal supports for this cpu can anyone help please.
Thanks

very good
How to know any cpu's Tia portal version.?
I am getting the MB Master error 8180, this indicates invalid ID, I don’t understand why this is happening, I have double checked the code many times.
did you find a solution?
Does this apply to a Siemens PLC S7 1500, connected to a CM PtP through an IO Module ET 200SP? Do the settings and blocks still apply?
Thank you
Cheers
In Data_ptr can we type it in pointer format without any chang in our data block!?
If you are having issues with connection after the setup. Try 9600 baud rate and no parity. My modbus card only works at that setting.
Depends on your hardware.
Is it possible to simulate without physical hardware>......with PLCSIM Advance??
Thanks was great
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Hello i have a plc S7 200 cpu214 with COM port DB9. I don't have PC/PPI cable. I have the RS485 convert. Please provide me a solution.
Hello, morning sir, please tell me how to display value of Holding register to HMI ? thanks
Anyone who can tell the difference between the modbus_comm_load and MB_comm_load blocks?
Bro I get "CHECKSUM ERROR " how to rectify it
Help - Still no communication - Checksum error on ModPoll. I've tried it on both modbus slave and mod pol but still unsuccesfull
if you're getting a checksum error are you sure you have parity set correctly?

Same issue here. Running TIA v16 and can only see MODBUS RTU. Let me know if you find a solution.
