      Hi,

      Can you create multiple Modbus publishers on the same instance using the same port but with different slave id’s?

      If so, is there a limit on how many you can create?

      Mango Core version: 3.5.6
      Mango API module version: 3.5.2
      MangoUi module version: 3.5.5
      Platform: 10.14 MacOS Mojave
      Chrome: Version 70.0.3538.110 (64-bit)

        Hi Pikey4,

        This seems like something trying would give the best answer for! But,

        1. Yes you can enable more than one on the same port if the slave IDs are distinct.
        2. Yes there is a limit. Modbus has a slave ID space of something like 1-243 but the validation in Mango and Modbus4J should accept any integer 0 <= slaveId <= 255 so potentially there's a limit of 256, but in practice some of those slave IDs may not work.
