Contact and Modbus Consulting

Do you have a question about LumiBMS, Modbus, building automation or system integration?

I offer consulting for manufacturers developing Modbus devices and companies that want to make their products easier to integrate into automation systems.

My focus is on clear Modbus documentation, well structured register maps, and practical communication design. Good documentation and a carefully planned register structure make integration faster and give system integrators a better experience when working with your device.

How I can help

  • Modbus device documentation
  • Register map design and review
  • Register naming, addressing, data types, scaling, and units
  • Reviewing an existing Modbus implementation from an integrator’s perspective
  • Modbus RTU and Modbus TCP communication design
  • Device communication specification reviews

Whether you are developing a new device or improving an existing product, I can help make the Modbus interface clear, consistent, and straightforward to integrate.

The goal is simple: make your device easy to understand and smooth to integrate into real automation systems.

If your company needs help with Modbus documentation, register mapping, communication design, or integration, feel free to get in touch.

About me

I’m Henry Forsström, an automation engineer and automation technician from Finland with about 10 years of experience in automation and building automation.

My background covers automation installations, field devices, system design, project planning, PLC programming, commissioning, Modbus communication, system integration, software development and technical leadership.

My technician background gives me practical knowledge of installations, wiring, field equipment and site work. My engineering experience covers building automation, programming, communication protocols and complete system integration.

I hold a Bachelor of Engineering in Electrical and Automation Engineering, specializing in Automation Technology, from Metropolia University of Applied Sciences.

My Bachelor’s thesis, Modbus-opas, focused on Modbus communication in building automation, including design, programming, commissioning and troubleshooting.

Bachelor’s thesis: Modbus-opas

I also hold a Master of Science (Technology) from LUT University, where I studied Software Product Management and Business.

My Master’s thesis, How Building Automation Engineers Develop Competence and Transfer It Between Systems, studied how building automation engineers develop technical competence and transfer knowledge between different building automation systems.
