I've finished a first release of a HAL userspace component to drive a Toshiba VF-S11 VFD via Modbus, vfs11_vfd. It's adapted from gs2_vfd.c and works fine for me so far. A description how to connect the VFD and set initial parameters is included.
I would assume that folks with other Modbus-capable VFD's find vfs11_vfd a bit easier to adapt than gs2_vfd because it is not assumed that register range are continuous, or multiple holding reagister read/writes are availaible. Code, manpage etc currently is at http://mah.priv.at/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/vfs11_vfd/?root=CVS&hideattic=1 . Code should go into src/hal/user_comps and added to the Submakefile like gs2_vfd, then make. Bug reports & success stories are welcome. -Michael ps: I'd appreciate a hint as to how to socially-compatible add this to the EMC2 tree.
