Please be more specific.  Do you get an error, or just incorrect data in the Modbus device?  

Can you please turn on asynTrace of both the AR-GT7-PC3 and AR-GT7-PC3:Write_IConsFLE port drivers and send the output when your ao record processes.

Hi,

- I don't understand why the Linux IOC crash is not reproducible ...
so now the behaviour is the same on both Linux and VxWorks:
Data in the waveform are equal to zero if scan is I/O Intr
Data are correct in the waveform if scan is periodic

- I've successfully tested the read INT32_LE function.

I don't manage to write a FLOAT32_LE:

here is my record:
record(ao, "$(EQPT):TstICons") {
   field(SCAN, "Passive")
   field(DTYP, "asynFloat64")
   field(OUT, "@asyn($(EQPT):Write_IConsFLE 0)FLOAT32_LE")
}

here is my drvModbusAsynConfigure:
drvModbusAsynConfigure("AR-GT7-PC3:Write_IConsFLE", "AR-GT7-PC3", 255, 16 , 5 ,  2 , 7 ,   1 , "InterfaceIocaste")

do you see any incorrect setting ?

Regards
