MODBUS_READ_BITS(3) libmodbus Manual MODBUS_READ_BITS(3) NAME modbus_read_bits - read many bits SYNOPSIS int modbus_read_bits(modbus_t *ctx, int addr, int nb, uint8_t *dest); DESCRIPTION The modbus_read_bits() function shall read the status of the nb bits (coils) to the address addr of the remote device. The result of reading is stored in dest array as unsigned bytes (8 bits) set to TRUE or FALSE. You must take care to allocate enough memory to store the results in dest (at least nb * sizeof(uint8_t)). The function uses the Modbus function code 0x01 (read coil status). RETURN VALUE The function shall return the number of read bits if successful. Otherwise it shall return -1 and set errno. ERRORS EMBMDATA Too many bits requested SEE ALSO modbus_write_bit(3) modbus_write_bits(3) AUTHORS The libmodbus documentation was written by StA(C)phane Raimbault <stephane.raimbault@gmail.com> libmodbus v3.1.6 08/10/2020 MODBUS_READ_BITS(3)
