Thanks @meister , now works!
Two more things:
-1: would be grateful if we could make a preconfig for that kind of board.
-2: In case of host disconnection...Can I force a value?. For example, if some of the signals are high, if I close the Linuxcnc, I want to force all signals low.
Thank you.

cool 
1: you mean a mbus_device template ? yes i will check it
2: Do you mean the Modbus outputs? Yes, there is something there, but I’ll need to check it again as I’ve rewritten the Modbus plugins. (Error values)
Basically, it’s just the Modbus message but without the address and without the CSUM.
This is then sent when the FPGA detects an error (disconnect / timeout).

@meister I tested your last dev commit, and the N4D3E16 template only works with the outputs; the inputs don't work.
Thank you so much for your work!

try again, found a bug
and now you can try to set the Error_Values to
6 0 112 0 0
this should switch all outputs to off on connection errors (PC<->FPGA)

Hello, does the N4D3E16 test work correctly? I'd also like to order one to try it out.
