Commands
For the variables that need an immediate refresh, commands are implemented.
The CommandOut allows to write commands on the device. The device performs the new values as soon as possible.
The CommanIn allows to read variables from device. The device send a CommandIn every 5 seconds and on event
(see table).

MODBUS serial communication
Serial communication via the RS-485 port may use the ModBus protocol. The accessible variables and parameters are
those shown in the tables in the section “Configuration”. These same tables also include ModBus addresses (base 1).
The same rules covered earlier for the communication alarm management also apply to the valve Enable valve
command (EnaV) (see “Communication error”).
The port configuration can be performed using dedicated configuration pages on EPJgraph or LCD display.
The default setting for ModBus communication via RS485 port is 9600 bps, even parity, 1 stop bit.
