When a Color Monitor is embedded in a Eaton product (PDU, RPP, or JCOMM), the customer does not
typically wire Modbus RTU directly to the Monitor. Downstream Modbus RTU links are typically to internal
devices and are wired at the factory. The upstream Modbus RTU link is extended from the Monitor to a
customer connection port, which differs by unit.
