Problems with Modbus OMNI driver

Lookout version 5.1 (build 😎

I am using the Modbus OMNI driver to communicate with 6 OMNI 6000 flow computers at 56K (Hardwired) with a poll rate of every 20 seconds, receive gap 270 bytes and a failure of 1000mS.

The problem I have is that when scanning the OMNI, not only are they slow to respond hence the long delays between scans, but I am also finding that the OMNI data for handling digital outputs is being corrupted causing?? them to fire faster than the period I have set in the OMNI. i.e. if I set a pulse output to occur when 1m3 of fluid has past I should get one pulse from the digital output. What is happening is that the outputs slowly start firing much quicker than this until we lose control of the signal and have to reconfigure the flow computer.

Is there a possibility that Lookout is corrupting some of the memory areas within the OMNI and causing this.

I see from other users that they are having problem with slow responses from this driver.

Any advice you have on this matter would be useful

Derek
