Hi, I am trying to use the library SensorModbusMaster. I have but some questions on the Git repository but have not received any answers.
<p dir=”auto”>I want to pull floating point data and trying to figure this out. My sensor simulator is set up for sensor address 1 and register 2 to send out floating point data on two registers, little endian. The debugging shows the response from the slave is right for decimal value 1000.5, reg 2 = 2000, reg 3 = 447A. But the answer from the function is “ovf” why am i not seeing 1000.5? Any help is appreciated.</p>

I also responded on GitHub (https://github.com/EnviroDIY/SensorModbusMaster/issues/25), but the endian-ness of your sensor simulator is not compatible. You simulator seems to be sending CDAB mixed-endian. SensorModbusMaster only supports ABCD or DCBA.
