How does HOST communicate with SmartDisplay via Modbus (LED and indicator control via physical and virtual switches)
To promote SmartDisplay products and make their use universal and straightforward, we continuously showcase demo example projects. In this episode, we will present another demo code, hoping that it will aid both beginners and experienced developers in grasping the fundamentals.
The Modbus protocol is widely used in industrial automation to control various devices and sensors. In this context, the Arduino board can be a useful tool for system integration and host control. By using the Modbus protocol, an Arduino board can control smart displays, gauges, indicators, and LEDs through various sensors and toggle buttons. In this article, we will examine a demo program that showcases the use of Modbus protocol to control a smart display using an Arduino-2560 and RS485 shield.► View More
