readCoils()

Description

Sends a packet command to the Slave node to read the Coils register.

Syntax

node1.readCoils(read_address, read_size)

Parameters

node1: ModbusMasterNode object.

read_address: The starting address of the Coils register to be read.

read_size: The size of the Coils register to be read.

Return

int: If successful, return MODBUS_SUCCESS, otherwise return EXCEPTION_CODE .
