7 Take care to read the documentation at http://libmodbus.org/documentation/.

11 libmodbus@googlegroups.com
13 - *Use a clear and decriptive title* for the issue to identify
15 - *Which version of libmodbus are you using?* you can obtain this information
16 from your package manager or by running `pkg-config --modversion libmodbus`.
17 You can provide the sha1 of the commit if you have fetched the code with `git`.
19 - *Which operating system are you using?*
21 - *Describe the exact steps which reproduce the problem* in as many details as
22 possible. For example, the software/equipement which runs the Modbus server, how
23 the clients are connected (TCP, RTU, ASCII) and the source code you are using.

26 of the Modbus messages and it's very convenient to analyze issues
