ATV312 Schneider “Modbus RTU” via Modbus Poll

In previous posts plc247.com used some kind of HMI/PLC to control ATV312 Schneider inverter via Modbus-RTU. Today I will show you how to use a Computer to control it directly.

In order for the computer to be able to connect to the inverter, we need a USB to RS485 converter. The software used is Modbus Poll which is extremely light (3MB) and easy to use.
