Description
N10:27

5027
Output Offset
This parameter specifies the offset address in the
internal Modbus database for network requests for
Modbus function 1, 5, or 15 commands. For
example, if the value is set to 100, an address
request of 0 will return the value at register 100 in
the database.
N10:28 29
5028
Holding
Register
Offset
This parameter specifies the offset address in the
internal Modbus database for network requests for
Modbus 3, 6, or 16 commands. For example, if the
value is set to 50, an address request of 0 will
return the value at register 50 in the database.

Command Count
This parameter specifies the number of commands
to be processed for the port. Enter a value of 0 to
100.
N10:30 31

Minimum
Command
Delay
This parameter specifies the number of
milliseconds to wait between the initial issuance of
a command. This parameter can be used to delay
all commands sent to slaves to avoid "flooding"
commands on the network. This parameter does
not affect retries of a command as they will be
issued when failure is recognized. Enter a value in
the range of 0 to 65535.
N10:31 32
5031
Command
Error
Pointer
This parameter sets the address in the internal
Modbus database where the command error data
will be placed. If the value is set to -1, the data will
not be transferred to the database. Enter a value of
0 to 4999.
N10:32

5032
Response Timeout
This parameter represents the message response
timeout period in 1 ms increments. This is the time
that a port configured as a master will wait before
re-transmitting a command if no response is
received from the addressed slave. The value is set
depending on to communication network used and
the expected response time of the slowest device
on the network.
N10:33

5033
Retry Count
This parameter specifies the number of times a
command will be retried if it fails. Enter a value in
the range of 0 to 10.
N10:34
35
5034
Error Delay Count
This parameter specifies the number of polls to be
skipped on the slave before trying to re-establish
communications. After the slave fails to respond,
the master will skip commands to be sent to the
slave the number of times entered in the
parameter. Enter a value in the range of 0 to
65535.

Use Guard Band
Timer
Use packet gap timeout for messages (Yes or No).
Use only in multi-drop applications.

Guard Band Timeout
A value of 0 uses the default baud rate or you can
set a value in milliseconds (0 to 65535)
