[023 XX] Address
You can define a device address between 1 and 99 by this parameter. Entry 0  no address.
[024 X] Serial Mode
0 : Serial Interface-2 operates as RS232C 1 : Serial Interface-2 operates as RS485
2 : Serial Interface-2 operates as 20 mA TTY Current Loop (not for stainless steel housing)
[025 X] Data Length and Parity
0 : 8 bit, no parity 1 : 7 bit, odd parity 2 : 7 bit, even parity
Note: The parameter [ 025] must be set to “0” for Modbus RTU output.
