Course Overview
Learn how to create your own Modbus TCP/IP Client and Server Device using the Arduino Uno Development System
If you work in the Automation Industry, you will know that automation equipment is very expensive. And many a time, especially for small applications, you simply cannot justify the use of very expensive equipment.
This is where the Arduino comes in!
The Arduino development board allows you to create very simple, but very powerful, Modbus client or server devices through the use of relatively simple "C" programming. With the Arduino, you have full custom control over the program design allowing you to create very lean and very efficient devices for very specific purposes.
Put simply, mastering Modbus on the Arduino is going to take your skill level and value in the Automation Industry to a whole new level.
That is what this course is going to do. At the end of the course, you will know how to:
1. Choose the appropriate Arduino hardware.
2. Interconnect Arduino hardware with other add-on hardware.
3. Write "C" applications to implement Modbus client and server functionality.
4. Use software and hardware to test each application that you write.
All of the programs written in the course are freely downloadable and give you a perfect starting point for further development. At the end of the course, you will have the knowledge to create your own products, your own custom Modbus client and server hardware.
Looking forward to seeing you on the inside!

Very good course, it walks you through the required libraries and code to setup an Arduino as a Modbus Server or as a Modbus Client. If you know how to code/use Arduino and want to set it up to connect to an IP network and communicate with other devices, this course will definitely prepare you for that. Feedback for the instructor: excellent work, I have enjoyed your courses and found direct utility/application to my work. To this course, I would add the following (in order of importance): 1) Add example or explain if possible/not to have an Arduino Client force coils or change registers. An example for the lecture's code, if your Arduino Client reads tank_level > 14, then force pump coil to True. 2) Add example or explain if possible/not to have an Arduino work both as a Server AND Client (i.e., responds to poll, but it's also able to poll some other device on the network). Thank you!

I had been looking a lot of time information about comunication Tcp with arduino but i did not able to understand how modbus tcp works, how ever with this course i understood everything so quickly . It was clear and useful.
