Communication Address Setup
Use a small screwdriver to set the most significant digit of the Modbus address by setting
switch S1 to the required digit in the range 0 to 9, as illustrated in the figure below. Repeat
this operation for the middle digit of the address by adjustment of switch S2 and for the
least significant digit of the address by adjustment of switch S3.
Modbus addresses are valid only in the range 33 to 247. Setting the address outside this
range will terminate response of the device to the Modbus network.
