hi,
I'm using a simple Modbus TCP read node connecting to a remote Modbus server (outside of node-red).
when this server is offline I receive in the debug console : "socket error: Error: connect ETIMEDOUT xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:502" with the name of the Modbus server ( that is completely normal) .
I thought that by putting a catch node to detect these errors on this Modbus TCP read node I would be able to catch them but nothing is raised.
So how can I detect that the Modbus server is Offline ?
thanks in advance
Hi Folgore,
thanks for pointing me in this direction
ping works fine, yet node status is not giving expected results; actually, not always sending the watched node status (this modbus tcpread node)
if there is an error the catch node should catch it - the status node shadows the status that appears under nodes (which may also show errors - but may not)
