the correct address with ? or ?! command.

WXT510 keeps sending the
message "TX Sync/address
error".

The polling address and
WXT510 address do not match.
The WXT510 is on an RS-485
bus with other polled devices
and Error Messages are
enabled.

Set correct address either for the
WXT510 or to the polling
request.
Disable the Error Messages with
the command aSU,S=N <crlf>.
