Alex Lisitsyn 67f62a79c1 freemodbus: add modbus master ascii
add support of modbus master ascii
rename base dir name of master and slave example to be mb_slave, mb_master to avoid conflict with sdio/slave example test
add Kconfig option to enable ASCII and RTU mode separately
update ASCII options + remove cast for errors
added baudrate for examples into Kconfig
updated magic numbers for timer timeout
put ascii private definitions into one file

# Modbus Master Example
This example demonstrates using of FreeModbus stack port implementation for ESP32 as a master device.
This implementation is able to read/write values of slave devices connected into Modbus segment. All parameters to be accessed are defined in data dictionary of the modbus master example source file.
The values represented as characteristics with its name and characteristic CID which are linked into registers of slave devices connected into Modbus segment.
The example implements simple control algorithm and checks parameters from slave device and gets alarm (relay in the slave device) when value of holding_data0 parameter exceeded limit.
The instances for the modbus parameters are common for master and slave examples and located in examples\protocols\modbus\serial\common_components folder.
Example parameters definition:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Slave Address | Characteristic ID | Characteristic name | Description |
|---------------------|----------------------|----------------------|----------------------------|
| MB_DEVICE_ADDR1 | CID_INP_DATA_0, | Data_channel_0 | Data channel 1 |
| MB_DEVICE_ADDR1 | CID_HOLD_DATA_0, | Humidity_1 | Humidity 1 |
| MB_DEVICE_ADDR1 | CID_INP_DATA_1 | Temperature_1 | Sensor temperature |
| MB_DEVICE_ADDR1 | CID_HOLD_DATA_1, | Humidity_2 | Humidity 2 |
| MB_DEVICE_ADDR1 | CID_INP_DATA_2 | Temperature_2 | Ambient temperature |
| MB_DEVICE_ADDR1 | CID_HOLD_DATA_2 | Humidity_3 | Humidity 3 |
| MB_DEVICE_ADDR1 | CID_RELAY_P1 | RelayP1 | Alarm Relay outputs on/off |
| MB_DEVICE_ADDR1 | CID_RELAY_P2 | RelayP2 | Alarm Relay outputs on/off |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: The Slave Address is the same for all parameters for example test but it can be changed in the ```Example Data (Object) Dictionary``` table of master example to address parameters from other slaves.
The Kconfig ```Modbus slave address``` - CONFIG_MB_SLAVE_ADDR parameter in slave example can be configured to create Modbus multi slave segment.

## Hardware required :
Option 1:
PC (Modbus Slave app) + USB Serial adapter connected to USB port + RS485 line drivers + ESP32 WROVER-KIT board.
Option 2:
Several ESP32 WROVER-KIT board flashed with modbus_slave example software to represent slave device with specific slave address (See CONFIG_MB_SLAVE_ADDR). The slave addresses for each board have to be configured as defined in "connection schematic" above.
One ESP32 WROVER-KIT board flashed with modbus_master example. All the boards require connection of RS485 line drivers (see below).
The MAX485 line driver is used as an example below but other similar chips can be used as well.

Modbus Master device Modbus Slave device

## How to setup and use an example:
### Configure the application
Start the command below to setup configuration:
```
idf.py menuconfig
```
Configure the UART pins used for modbus communication using and table below.
Define the communication mode parameter for master and slave in Kconfig - CONFIG_MB_COMM_MODE (must be the same for master and slave devices in one segment).
Configure the slave address for each slave in the Modbus segment (the CONFIG_MB_SLAVE_ADDR in Kconfig).
```
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| ESP32 Interface | #define | Default ESP32 Pin | External RS485 Pin|
| ----------------------|------------------------------|-------------------|-------------------|
| Transmit Data (TxD) | CONFIG_MB_UART_TXD | GPIO23 | DI |
| Receive Data (RxD) | CONFIG_MB_UART_RXD | GPIO22 | RO |
| Request To Send (RTS) | CONFIG_MB_UART_RTS | GPIO18 | ~RE/DE |
| | | | |
| Ground | n/a | GND | GND |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
```
The communication parameters of Modbus stack allow to configure it appropriately but usually it is enough to use default settings.
See the help string of parameters for more information.
### Setup external Modbus slave devices or emulator
Option 1:
Configure the external Modbus master software according to port configuration parameters used in the example. The Modbus Slave application can be used with this example to emulate slave devices with its parameters. Use official documentation for software to setup emulation of slave devices.
Option 2:
Other option is to have the modbus_slave example application flashed into ESP32 WROVER KIT board and connect boards together as showed on the Modbus connection schematic above. See the Modbus slave API documentation to configure communication parameters and slave addresses as defined in "Example parameters definition" table above.
### Build and flash software of master device
Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:
```
idf.py -p PORT flash monitor
```
(To exit the serial monitor, type ``Ctrl-]``.)
See the Getting Started Guide for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.

The example reads the characteristics from slave device(s), while alarm is not triggered in the slave device (See the "Example parameters definition"). The output line describes Timestamp, Cid of characteristic, Characteristic name (Units), Characteristic value (Hex).
