Multiple devices?

[njh]

I have multiple Heatmiser Modbus Room Thermostats.

Is it possible to describe a device type and then specify multiple device ids for that device type? Or do you have to repeat the configuration for each device?

It is possible for Modbus TCP devices but not Modbus RTU devices yet.

How do you configure multiple Modbus TCP devices?

[gavinying]

Since TCP device's IP address info is not included in the config file, so the config can be reused for all same type devices. To connect to multiple devices, I usually use multiple docker containers in a docker-compose file. For example, we can run multiple modsim devices locally or on cloud and connect to them via a single publicly shared modsim config file.
