Disclaimer

Last Updated: February 18, 2025

Scope of this disclaimer

This disclaimer applies to ModbusKit (modbuskit.com) tools and services. It explains their intended use, limitations and responsibilities. Read it before using the service. Using the service indicates that you understand and accept these provisions. Contact us before use if anything is unclear.

1. Intended use

The tools are provided on this basis:

• They are intended for learning, research and development testing.
• Results are for reference and are not a technical guarantee.
• You must check results against the requirements of your application.
• Direct reliance on tool results in critical production environments is not recommended.
• The tools follow general Modbus formats and may not cover a particular device or implementation.
• You are responsible for meeting relevant technical and safety requirements.

2. Technical limitations

Consider these limitations when interpreting results:

• Rounding, data types and byte-order settings can affect numeric results. A CRC mismatch for the same bytes requires investigation; it is not a normal rounding difference.
• Checksum and conversion functions are tested, but accuracy is not guaranteed in every situation.
• Device-specific Modbus behavior may not be covered.
• Input format and range affect processing results.
• Network conditions and browser compatibility may affect operation.
• Verify results before applying them to equipment.

3. Usage risks

Risks include:

• Equipment damage or data loss from an incorrect command.
• Production interruption while testing connected equipment.
• Exposure of sensitive data: browser-side calculations do not eliminate website or third-party network activity.
• Incompatibility with a particular device or system.
• Unexpected results caused by an operating error.
• Use the tools only when you understand the relevant risks.

4. Service availability

Availability is subject to these limitations:

• Uninterrupted operation is not guaranteed.
• Maintenance, network faults and other events may interrupt access.
• Browser compatibility may limit functionality.
• Force majeure, including natural disasters or government action, may affect service.
• We may modify, suspend or terminate the service at any time.
• We are not responsible for losses caused by service interruptions.

5. Third-party dependencies

The website depends on third-party technology and services:

• Browser APIs and software libraries may affect functionality.
• Browser updates may change compatibility.
• Hosting, CDN and network providers may affect access and speed.
• Third-party privacy policies and terms may differ from ours.
• We are not responsible for the availability or reliability of third-party services.
• Review the terms of relevant third-party services.

6. Industrial use

For industrial applications:

• These tools are not industrial control software and should not be used for safety-critical systems.
• Assess safety and test sufficiently before use with industrial equipment.
• We are not responsible for equipment damage or production losses caused by use.
• Follow applicable industrial safety standards and operating procedures.
• Consult qualified personnel or use appropriately certified tools where required.
• Use verified commercial-grade solutions for mission-critical applications.

7. Data handling

The following limitations apply to your data:

• Browser-side calculations do not guarantee that no data is transmitted to servers. The site also uses analytics and advertising services.
• You must ensure that input does not contain confidential or sensitive information.
• We are not responsible for reviewing or validating the content of your input.
• You bear the risks of data loss or disclosure.
• Back up important information and do not rely solely on online tools.

You are responsible for how you use tool output:

• Losses caused by third parties, including attacks or malware.
• Losses caused by prohibited use or incorrect operation.
• Losses caused by force majeure.
• Losses caused by technical issues beyond our reasonable control.

11. Recommended precautions

Before relying on tool results:

• Verify them in a test environment.
• Back up important data and device configurations.
• Use a current, compatible browser.
• Follow industrial safety procedures.
• Cross-check critical results independently.
• Plan how to handle errors and recover from failures.
