MODBUS Registers: 

MODBUS registers are provided only for models with RS485 communication port. 
Parameter values shall be provided as per selected model. Un-supported values will be read as 
‘0’. 
Parameters from the sensor can be read via MODBUS protocol in both signed integer and 
float data formats
