Hi Don:

I am also working with S7-200 and modbus...  I wonder if you could
confirm something for me.

At least in my case, the S7-225XP we're working with doesn't appear to
set the exception code properly; it is always 0.  The returning packet
has the error bit set, but the exception code byte is 0.

I don't know if this is a bug in the S7-200 modbus library or a bug in
my library.

You can test this easily enough by sending a modbus write (0x10) to a
bogus address; the PLC should return a modbus packet like this:

[Slave Address] 0x90 0x02 [checksum]

I've been all through my modbus code and I can't find an error, but
that doesn't mean there isn't one....

Thanks,

--Yan
