Hi phildunlap,
I use a simple USB A male to B male cable to connect my Arduino and unfortunately I am not capable of building 485 type of connection.
Any type of timing settings (even above 10 s) resulted in aborted polls in Mango, while as strict polling as 500 ms or 1 s in ScadaBR or RapidSCADA or any other Modbus Master (downloaded some applications acting as Modbus Master) do not act like Mango with the same settings. Therefore, I do not know what type of timing override I might employ to make it work.
