Unable Read/Write Modbus Registers from Node-Red

[ FlexSim 19.0.9 ]

Hello everyone,

I have been able to read registers of the simulation environment using modbus in nod-red

Now I was trying to write to the registers but it has been impossible. I used in the same modbus in node red sending the a value 1 to flexsim register 7 and the conveyor belt but it didn't move.

I have seen in other publication with this example working, I don't kown if youi have any suggestions for me?

@Flavia P2

First make sure you have the connection you want to use selected in the picture below. You have it correctly selected for your Sensors.

If that doesn't work I'd like to see if it's reading anything in general. Add a code snipet to the Action Field and enter this print(newValue,oldValue);

Then open up the Output console and see if anything is being written when you run it. Do this for all the registers you want to listen to.

So after I tried your solution with Code Snippet this was the result on the Output Console

I'm new to FlexSim, so I don't know how to intrepert these results, if could help me again please it would be great

Just to let you know that I was already able to control de conveyor belts using the Node-red application

@約書亞S 我想知道你對node red和Flexsim之間的聯繫的想法和秘訣
