This manual describes the application interface of the Open Modbus/TCP protocol stack. Use this manual to support and guide you through the integration process of the given stack into your own application.
This stack was developed based upon Hilscher’s Task Layer Reference Programming Model. This programming model is a description of how to develop a task in general, which is a convention defining a combination of appropriate functions belonging to the same task. Furthermore, it defines how different tasks have to communicate with each other in order to exchange their data. The Reference Model is commonly used by all developers at Hilscher and shall be used by you as well when writing your application task on top of the stack.
