Modbus — The Modbus Testing Framework

htf includes a full-stack Modbus implementation since version 1.3 with the following features:

  • Serial RTU, Serial ASCII, TCP, TLS and UDP support

  • client support

  • device simulator support

  • default Modbus protocol

  • extended Modbus protocol

  • supported endianness: little endian, big endian, word aligned and half-word aligned

  • protocol abstraction is based on oser

  • working with data oser structures instead of bits and bytes

  • fault insertion

  • possibility to extend client and device simulator with own commands

The Modbus implementation is capable of testing Modbus clients and servers.
