MyEMS Modbus TCP Service
Introduction
This service is a component of MyEMS to acquire data from Modbus TCP devices.
Prerequisites
mysql-connector-python
modbus_tk
schedule
python-decouple
Quick Run for Development
pip install -r requirements.txt
chmod +x run.sh
run.sh
Installation
Download and install MySQL Connector:
cd ~/tools
wget https://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/Connector-Python/mysql-connector-python-8.0.20.tar.gz
tar xzf mysql-connector-python-8.0.20.tar.gz
cd ~/tools/mysql-connector-python-8.0.20
python3 setup.py install
Download and install Schedule
cd ~/tools
git clone https://github.com/dbader/schedule.git
cd ~/tools/schedule
python3 setup.py install
Download and install modbus-tk
cd ~/tools
git clone https://github.com/pyserial/pyserial.git
cd ~/tools/pyserial
python3 setup.py install
git clone https://github.com/ljean/modbus-tk.git
cd ~/tools/modbus-tk
python3 setup.py install
Download and install Python Decouple
cd ~/tools
git clone https://github.com/henriquebastos/python-decouple.git
cd ~/tools/python-decouple
python3 setup.py install
Install myems-modbus-tcp service
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/MyEMS/myems.git
cd myems
git checkout master (or the latest release tag)
cp -R ~/myems/myems-modbus-tcp /myems-modbus-tcp
Create .env file based on example.env and edit the .env file if needed:
cp /myems-modbus-tcp/example.env /myems-cleaning/.env
nano /myems-modbus-tcp/.env
Setup systemd service:
cp myems-modbus-tcp.service /lib/systemd/system/
Enable the service:
systemctl enable myems-modbus-tcp.service
Start the service:
systemctl start myems-modbus-tcp.service
Monitor the service:
systemctl status myems-modbus-tcp.service
View the log:
cat /myems-modbus-tcp.log
Add Data Sources and Points in MyEMS Admin
NOTE: If you modified Modbus TCP datasources and points, please restart this service:
systemctl restart myems-modbus-tcp.service
Input Data source protocol:
modbus-tcp
Data source connection example:
{"host":"10.9.67.99","port":502}
Point address example:
{"slave_id":1, "function_code":3, "offset":0, "number_of_registers":2, "format":"<f", "byte_swap":true}
Address
slave_id
The slave ID
function_code
01 (0x01) Read Coils
02 (0x02) Read Discrete Inputs
03 (0x03) Read Holding Registers
04 (0x04) Read Input Registers
23 (0x17) Read/Write Multiple registers
offset
The starting register address specified in the Request PDU
number_of_registers
The number of registers specified in the Request PDU
format
Use python3 library struct to format bytes. Python bytes objects are used to hold the data representing the C struct and also as format strings (explained below) to describe the layout of data in the C struct.
The optional first format char indicates byte order, size and alignment: @: native order, size & alignment (default) =: native order, std. size & alignment <: little-endian, std. size & alignment >: big-endian, std. size & alignment !: same as >
The remaining chars indicate types of args and must match exactly; these can be preceded by a decimal repeat count: x: pad byte (no data); c:char; b:signed byte; B:unsigned byte; ?: _Bool (requires C99; if not available, char is used instead) h:short; H:unsigned short; i:int; I:unsigned int; l:long; L:unsigned long; f:float; d:double.
Special cases (preceding decimal count indicates length): s:string (array of char); p: pascal string (with count byte). Special cases (only available in native format): n:ssize_t; N:size_t; P:an integer type that is wide enough to hold a pointer.
Special case (not in native mode unless 'long long' in platform C): q:long long; Q:unsigned long long
Whitespace between formats is ignored.
byte_swap
A boolean indicates whether or not to swap adjacent bytes.
Swap adjacent bytes of 32bits(4bytes) or 64bits(8bytes).
This is not for little-endian and big-endian swapping, and use format for that.
The option is effective when number_of_registers is ether 2(32bits) or 4(64bits),
else it will be ignored.
