Trigger input from Modbus directly

When modbus is running and connected to my pokeys I/O card, I can see the value updated in the variables table. The pokeys is connected on port 503, Also tried port 3, to directly trigger an input event. Is this at all possible without running a macro loop ?
Thanks Joe

No. The modbus plugin doesn't know what you read from the device, so it cannot trigger any event. You have to write a macroloop or a plugin (which knows how to use this data) to handle the data input and/or output.
