Modbus RTPS
The Modbus RTPS seems published by IEC from 2004. However, it seems unpopular in the market. I can find the RTPS protocol specification. However, I still do not know how to combine the Modbus protocol with RTPS protocol. Does anyone have experience with this?
RTPS is part of the now aging iDA protocol that can still be downloaded from the Modbus-iDA website:

iDA was supposed to be the future for Modbus/TCP for application to motion control. It just does not seem to be going anywhere.
Technically, iDA and RTPS is excellent work.
