I'm not quite following how I could implement that. Here is what I am trying to do: Uses Serial,Sysutils,Sockets,CRT; var Socket_Address: TSockAddr; opt: LongWord; Connect_Result : Integer; TCP_Connect_Socket : Tsocket; begin Modbus.Device[Device_Number].TCP_Socket := fpsocket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP); if Modbus.Device[Device_Number].TCP_Socket = TSocket(INVALID_SOCKET) then Writeln('Error Creating Socket: ',SocketError); Socket_Address.sin_family := AF_INET; Socket_Address.sin_addr := StrToNetAddr(Modbus.Device[Device_Number].Connection); Socket_Address.sin_port := htons(Modbus.Device[Device_Number].TCP_Port); Connect_Result := fpconnect(Modbus.Device[Device_Number].TCP_Socket, @Socket_Address, sizeof(Socket_Address)); if Connect_Result = SOCKET_ERROR then Writeln('Error Connecting Socket: ',SocketError); // I want to get this error in 2 seconds ...
Are you saying to use TInetSocket instead of the Sockets unit? Or do I just figure out how to use set ConnectTimeout and then that's the timeout that will be used, and still use everything else the same?

AFAIK, socket connect timeout is implemented in ssockets ( in TSocketStream ) not in sockets unit. You can use the TInetSocket's class from ssockets unit ( this is what fphttpclient uses ) overloaded constructor with the aConnectTimeout parameter or if you want you can use the ConnectTimeout property before connect and you're ready to go ... regards, -- Dimitrios Chr.
