I have an Arduino Opta PLC that must act as the Modbus RTU master for two drives—a Siemens SINAMICS V20 and a Power Electronics VFD. The goal is simple: a user touches a Cloud- Arduino touchscreen, enters a ratio such as 30 : 70, presses “Run,” and the PLC then runs each VFD for the correct proportional time slice before repeating or stopping as configured. What I need from you • Ladder-logic code written in the Arduino PLC IDE that handles Modbus polling, ratio calculation, timing, and safe start/stop sequences for both drives. • A detailed step-by-step guide (screenshots encouraged) covering wiring, RS-485 settings, drive parameter maps, code deployment, and how to expand or tweak the timing logic later. Acceptance will be based on: 1. The Opta reliably writes frequency, start/stop, and fault-reset registers to each VFD over Modbus RTU. 2. Entering 40 : 60, 15 : 85, or any other ratio yields proportional run times within ±1 % accuracy over a ten-minute cycle. 3. Documentation is clear enough that a technician can reproduce the setup from a fresh Opta and new drives without additional help. You are free to use any Modbus libraries that compile in the PLC IDE, as long as the final package runs without license restrictions. Let me know if you need register maps or drive manuals; I have them ready.

Hello sir, you know when “just run two VFDs in a 30:70 ratio” sounds easy—until you’re dealing with Modbus RTU timing, register writes, comms retries, fault resets, and safe interlocks, all while a touchscreen user can change ratios on the fly? Well, what I can do for you is build a robust Ladder program in Arduino PLC IDE for your Arduino Opta that acts as the Modbus RTU master for both the Siemens SINAMICS V20 and your Power Electronics VFD: reliable polling/writes, ratio-to-timeslice math, accurate scheduling within ±1% over long cycles, and safe start/stop/fault handling. In fact, I recently implemented a multi-drive Modbus control sequence by structuring the logic as a clean state machine (Idle → Precheck → Drive A Run → Switch → Drive B Run → Repeat/Stop), adding watchdogs + comms retry windows, and calculating run windows using scaled integers to avoid timing drift—so the time-slice ratio stayed accurate across long runtime cycles and technicians could maintain it easily.
