Modbus
Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, Civil and Environmental)
Modbus is a serial communication protocol developed in 1979 for industrial automation systems, allowing programmable logic controllers (PLCs), sensors, and other devices to exchange data. It is widely used in manufacturing, energy, and building automation because of its simplicity, open specification, and broad hardware compatibility. Engineers and technicians who work with industrial control systems (ICS) and SCADA networks frequently rely on it.
