You may need to swap the order of the bytes in the registers during the copy
process in order to change the alignment of bytes between dissimilar protocols.
This parameter is helpful when dealing with floating-point or other multi-register
values, as there is no standard method of storage of these data types in slave
devices.
The following table defines the values and their associated operations:
