Hi,

I read in the description you could write a plugin for ModBus RTU / RS485. I need one :-) I've connected the RS485 directly to the nagios server by a comserver (serial over ethernet) modpoll is working so far... So the plugin should be able to just use a /dev/tty device.

thanks

Hi, Marco. Thank you very much for the rating. Since version 0.4 check_modbus supports Modbus RTU over RS232/RS485 and some other features.
