mb_set_dev_var

WMPRO, WMMINI FW >= 1.0 WMMEGA FW >= 2.0

Set a variable on a modbus device

Description

int mb_set_dev_var ( string $name or int $id, string $variable, mixed $value )

Parameters

$name: Device name

$id: Device identification number (slave ID)

$variable: Parameter to set.

This can be the register name, one of the predefined parameters such as “name”, “slave_id”, “delay”, or a role value by passing “roleX” where is X is a number between 0 and the number of roles -1 for that driver. This will allow you to set a role value which may span two registers (such as a float or unsigned) in one go. It will take care of sending the appropriate Modbus command to update the value in the device itself.

$value: Value to set for the variable

Return Values

Integer: 1=OK
