Q&A

What read/write operations are available through the server?

modbus-mcp provides tools to read/write holding registers, read/write coils, read input registers, and read multiple holding registers, all accessible via structured JSON outputs.

Asked by Liam O’Connor · Sep 15, 2025

Can I customize the prompts used for analyzing register values?

Yes, the server includes a customizable prompt feature (analyze_register) that lets you define how register values are interpreted and presented to AI agents.

Asked by Esther Adeyemi · Sep 10, 2025

Which Modbus connection types are supported and how are they configured?

It supports Modbus over TCP, UDP, and serial. Configuration is done through environment variables (e.g., MODBUS_TYPE, MODBUS_HOST, MODBUS_PORT for TCP/UDP; MODBUS_SERIAL_PORT, MODBUS_BAUDRATE, etc., for serial) set in a .env file or the shell.
