==Summary==
 +
In this guide, the MQTT Serial Gateway function will be configured using third-party MQTT Broker services (in this example, ''Flespi.io'').
    +
==Configuration overview & prerequisites==
 +
*Two devices with serials ports - one acts as Modbus RTU Master, another as Modbus RTU Slave;
 +
*Flespi.io account to act as an MQTT Broker/Publisher/Subscriber (for first configuration example);

If you're having trouble finding this page or some of the parameters described here on your device's WebUI, you should >turn on "Advanced WebUI" mode</b>. . You can do that by clicking the "Basic" button under "Mode", which is located at the top-right corner of the WebUI.
+
RUT2 will act as a Modbus RTU slave and RUT1 as a Modbus RTU Master. On RUT1, MQTT Serial Gateway will be configured to transfer Modbus data over MQTT. Flespi.io platform will serve as an MQTT Broker

==RUT2 configuration==
 +
===Configuring Modbus RTU Slave===
 +
----
 +
Go to Services → Modbus → Modbus RTU Slave and create a new instance.
 +
# Enter the '''desired instance name''';
 +
# Select the '''desired serial interface'''.

 +
===Configuring MQTT Gateway===
 +
----
 +
Go to '''Services → Modbus → MQTT Gateway''' and there:
 +
 
 +
# '''Enable''' the '''instance''';
 +
# '''Enter Host''' (copied from flespi connection settings without 'wss://' and port);
 +
# '''Enter Username''' (Copied from flespi Connection settings generated '''token''');
 +
# '''Enter Password'''.
 +
 
 +

 +
 
 +
'''Note''': ''Everything else can be left as default or changed according to your needs.''
 +
 
 +
===Configuring Serial Gateway===
 +
----
 +
Under the MQTT Gateway configuration, create the Serial Gateway:
 +
# Enter the '''desired device ID''';
 +
# Select the '''desired serial interface'''.
 +
 
 +

 +
 
 +
===Configuring Flespi.io MQTT Broker===
 +
----
 +
'''Log in''' or '''create an account''' on '''https://flespi.io''';
 +
 
 +
#Navigate to '''MQTT Board''' on the '''left side''' menu;                                       
 +
#On the right-hand panel, top right corner, next to the name of the MQTT board, '''press the cogwheel-looking icon''' to open ''Connection Settings'';
 +
#In the opened window, press '''"Get flespi token"''' to generate a username;
 +
#Enter the '''Client name''';
 +
#Copy the Host address;
 +
#Copy '''Username''';
 +
#Create a '''password'''.
 +
 
 +
Once done, save all the changes.

 +
===Message format for MQTT publisher===
 +
----
 +
Modbus request data sent in the MQTT payload should be generated in accordance with the following format:
 +
 
 +
<pre>1 <COOKIE> <SERIAL_DEVICE_ID> <TIMEOUT> <SLAVE_ID> <MODBUS_FUNCTION> <FIRST_REGISTER> <REGISTER_COUNT> </pre>
 +
 
 +
The table below explains what each option means:
 +
 
 +
{| class="wikitable"
 +
|1.  Format version
 +
|'''1'''
 +
|-
 +
|2. Cookie
 +
|from '''0''' to '''2<sup>64</sup> -1'''
 +
|-
 +
|3. Serial device ID
 +
|a string used to identify a serial device. Must match with <u>Device ID</u> field in MQTT Gateway page Serial gateway configuration section
 +
|-
 +
|4. Timeout
 +
|timeout for Modbus connection, in seconds. Range [1..999].
 +
|-
 +
|5. Slave ID
 +
|Indicates to which slave request is sent
 +
|-
 +
|6. Modbus function
 +
|Modbus task type that will be executed. Possible values are:
 +
        <ul>
 +
            <li><b>1</b> - read coils;</li>
 +
            <li><b>2</b> - read input coils;</li>
 +
            <li><b>3</b> - read holding registers;</li>
 +
            <li><b>4</b> - read input registers;</li>
 +
            <li><b>5</b> - set single coil;</li>
 +
            <li><b>6</b> - write to a single holding register;</li>
 +
            <li><b>15</b> - set multiple coils;</li>
 +
            <li><b>16</b> - write to multiple holding registers.</li>
 +
        </ul>
 +
|-
 +
|7. First register
 +
|number (not address) of the first register/coil/input (in range [1..65536]) from which the registers/coils/inputs will be read/written to.
 +
|-
 +
|8. Registry count
 +
| <li><b>1</b> - <u>coil count</u> (in range [1..2000]); must not exceed the boundary (first coil number + coil count <= 65537);</li>
 +
            <li><b>2</b> - <u>input count</u> (in range [1..2000]); must not exceed the boundary (first input number + input count <= 65537);</li>
 +

 +
====Examples====
 +
----
 +
{| class="wikitable"
 +
|Setting relay (on) (Relay address is 202, which means 'Number of first register will be 203)
 +
|'''1 1 1 1 1 6 203 1'''
 +
|-
 +
|Getting temperature
 +
|'''1 1 1 1 1 3 6 2'''
 +
|}
 +
Modbus parameters are held within registers. The register numbers and corresponding system values can be found [[RUT955_Monitoring_via_Modbus#Get_Parameters|'''in this article''']].
 +
 
 +
==Testing MQTT Publisher and Subscriber on flespi.io==
 +
====Adding Flespi Subscriber====
 +
----
 +
To test the Modbus Serial Gateway functionality, '''log into''' your '''Flespi account''' → '''MQTT Board''' and '''add a Subscriber''':
 +
 
 +
#Press '''''<nowiki/>'+'''''' button on the top right corner
 +
#Select '''''<nowiki/>'Subscriber''''''
 +
# In the topic field enter '''''<nowiki/>'response''''''
 +
#Press '''''<nowiki/>'Subscribe'''''' button
 +
 
 +
[[File:Flespi subscriber.png|border|class=tlt-border|496x204px]]          [[File:Flespi subscriber setup.png|border|class=tlt-border|496x205px]]
 +
====Adding Flespi Subscriber====
 +
----
 +
 
 +
Also, you will need to '''add a Publisher''':
 +
 
 +
#Press '''''<nowiki/>'+'''''' button on the top right corner
 +
#Select '''''<nowiki/>'Publisher''''''
 +
#In the topic field enter '''''<nowiki/>'request''''''
 +
#In the message field enter message, for this example '''''<nowiki/>'Getting temperature'''''' is used
 +
#Press '''''<nowiki/>'Publish'''''' button
 +
 
 +
[[File:Flespi publisher.png|border|class=tlt-border|495x238px]]  [[File:Flespi publisher setup.png|border|class=tlt-border|494x239px]]
 +
====Flespi Subscriber output====
 +
----
 +
Check the response in the '''''<nowiki/>'Subscriber'''''' tab, you should receive a message similar to the one below.
 +
 
 +
 
 +
[[File:Flespi response.png|border|center|class=tlt-border|500x305px]]
 +
 
 +
 
 +
In the output, we can see that router's '''temperature''' is '''44 degrees Celsius'''.
