Rules for Module Compatibility
The following rules of modules compatibility to run in Peer-to-Peer mode should be observed:
Same number of Expansion Modules.
Identical Radio units (in Base Modules).
Complimentary Expansion Modules.
Channel Number, Network ID, and Peer-to-Peer address must be the same for both Peer-to-Peer Master and Peer-
to-Peer Slave to communicate with a Peer-to-Peer Slave.

Peer-to-Peer Mode
2.2.2 Modbus Mode
In Modbus mode standard RTU Modbus messages can be sent and received between a Modbus radio modem with attached
Modbus device (being Master) and a Zlinx Wireless I/O system (being Slave). Data written to output addresses in the Zlinx
Wireless I/O Modbus map result in signals appearing on its outputs. Signals connected to Zlinx Wireless I/O inputs are
converted and stored in Modbus input memory locations and then sent across the link as Modbus messages to the Modbus
radio modem.
