WARNING
The power supply must be turned off before performing this operation!
Set the node address expressed in hexadecimal notation.
The node address range is between 1 and 247 (247 = F7 hex).
EXAMPLE
Address 10 = 0A hex:
Address 25 = 19 hex:
Address 95 = 5F hex:
NOTE
The default address is 1.
The address 0 is reserved to identify a “broadcast” exchange (Master sends a
request to all Slaves connected to the Modbus network). See the “7.1 Modbus
Master / Slaves protocol principle” section on page 48.
The Modbus Master node has no specific address, only the Slave nodes must
have an address. Each Slave must have a unique address.
Addresses from 248 to 255 are reserved.
If you set an address higher than 247, the device will be set to 247
automatically.
The node address which is currently set in the unit can be read next to the
