command is sent by the PanelView terminal, that an error
is indicated by no response from the slave device.

Baud Rate

Select the baud rate of the Modbus link. The available
baud rates are:
300
1200

RTS TX Delay (msec)

Enter a value between 0 and 2000 milliseconds. The
default is 0. This delay occurs between the asserting of
RTS and the transmission of the first character of data.

RTS Off Delay (msec)

Enter a value between 0 and 2000 milliseconds. The
default is 0. This delay occurs between the last data
character transmitted and the deasserting of RTS.
