MODBUS_SET_BYTE_TIME(3)        Libmodbus Manual        MODBUS_SET_BYTE_TIME(3)


NAME

       modbus_set_byte_timeout - set timeout between bytes


SYNOPSIS

       void modbus_set_byte_timeout(modbus_t *ctx, struct timeval *timeout);


DESCRIPTION

       The modbus_set_byte_timeout() function shall set the timeout interval
       between two consecutive bytes of the same message. If the delay between
       is longer than the given timeout, an error will be raised.

       If the timeout value has a tv_sec of -1 then this timeout will not be
       used at all. This results in modbus_set_response_timeout governing the
       entire timeout duration of an operation.


RETURN VALUE

       The function shall return 0 if successful. Otherwise it shall return -1
       and set errno.
