PHP and Modbus TCP: Building Multi-Threaded Data Transfer Applications

Modbus TCP is a commonly used industrial communication protocol used to transfer data between different devices. In PHP, we can use its powerful network programming capabilities and multi-thread support to build an efficient multi-threaded data transfer application.

Before we start writing code, we first need to ensure that the Modbus devices on the server and client are connected and the network parameters are configured. Next, let us write a simple Modbus TCP data transmission application.

First, we need to use composer to install the modbusphp library. Open the command line terminal, switch to the project directory, and execute the following command:

composer require evilnapsis/modbusphp

Next, introduce the Modbus library into the PHP code, we can create a new file modbus.php:

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use ModbusModbusTcpClient;

$host = '192.168.1.100'; // Modbus设备的IP地址
$port = 502; // Modbus设备的端口号

$client = new ModbusTcpClient($host, $port);

// 读取寄存器数据
function readRegisters($startAddress, $quantity)
{
  global $client;
  $response = $client->readHoldingRegisters($startAddress, $quantity);
  if ($response->isSuccess()) {
    return $response->getData();
  } else {
    return false;
  }
}

// 写入寄存器数据
function writeRegister($address, $value)
{
  global $client;
  $response = $client->writeSingleRegister($address, $value);
  return $response->isSuccess();
}

In the above code, we introduced the Modbus library and created a ModbusTcpClient instance. We also defined two functions, readRegisters and writeRegister, to read and write register data of Modbus devices.

Next, we can create a multi-threaded data transfer application example named data_transfer.php in the same file:

<?php
require 'modbus.php';

// 定义多个线程的数据传输任务
$tasks = [
  [
    'startAddress' => 0,
    'quantity' => 10,
    'callback' => function ($data) {
      // 处理读取到的数据
      var_dump($data);
    }
  ],
  [
    'address' => 10,
    'value' => 100,
    'callback' => function ($success) {
      // 处理写入结果
      var_dump($success);
    }
  ]
];

// 创建多个线程并发执行任务
$threads = [];
foreach ($tasks as $task) {
  $thread = new Threaded();
  $thread['task'] = $task;
  $threads[] = $thread;
}

// 执行数据传输任务
foreach ($threads as $thread) {
  $task = $thread['task'];
  if (isset($task['startAddress'])) {
    $data = readRegisters($task['startAddress'], $task['quantity']);
    $task['callback']($data);
  } else if (isset($task['address'])) {
    $success = writeRegister($task['address'], $task['value']);
    $task['callback']($success);
  }
}

// 等待所有线程执行完毕
foreach ($threads as $thread) {
  $thread->join();
}

In the above code, we define two data transfers One task is to read 10 register data starting at address 0, and the other is to write the register data at address 10 to 100. We use a foreach loop to create multiple threads to execute tasks concurrently. In each thread, we use an if statement to determine whether the task is reading or writing, and call the corresponding function to perform the task. Finally, we use the join method to wait for all threads to finish executing.

Through the above code example, we can see how to use PHP and Modbus TCP protocol to build a multi-threaded data transmission application. This application can handle multiple data transmission tasks at the same time, improving the efficiency and response speed of data transmission.

To summarize, the combination of PHP and Modbus TCP can be used to build powerful industrial data transmission applications. By leveraging PHP's network programming capabilities and multi-threading support, we can achieve efficient data transmission and processing.
