Have been using the Slave Simulator function to emulate PV Inverters for where data loggers have a discovery stage whereby they query certain registers for expected values. Normally this is only 5 to 8 register's and so easy to type in, however I have come across one with nearly 180 registers being queried in the discovery stage. Lots of typing but prone to error.
Suggestion is to use a 5 column CSV with , delimiter for input and holding type
Type of register(input or holding so 3 or 4), register number, Data type float int16 int32 (so 1 2 or 3), Value, word swap (1 or 2
), byte swap (1 or 2)
So a holding register with register number 40001, data type int16, no word swap, yes to byte swap would be
4,40001,2,1,2
