The higher the transmission rate the shorter the lines between the devices
has to be (doubling the baud rate halves the cable lengths).
Recommended baud rate with a cable of less than 500m length “19,200”

Parity
All devices in the Modbus network must have the same parity.
Recommended setting “Even”
6654
Stop bit
All devices in the Modbus network must have the same number of stop bits
(1 or 2). If 2 stop bits are set, then parity must be set to none.
Recommended setting is “1”
Year (8 bit value)
2000 - 2099 = 100...199
