Make the settings according to the usage environment.
*1 The GOT ensures in advance the minimum interval (3.5
characters time) for communication frame defined in the
MODBUS/RTU.
Therefore, the actual send delay time is as follows.
When connecting to MODBUS equipment which requires a
delay longer than 3.5 character time, adjust the send delay
time.
HINT HINT HINT
If the communication with MODBUS equipment is not
established, some equipment which requires a delay
longer than 3.5 character time may be connected.
Adjust the send delay time in the communication detail
setting.
POINT POINT POINT
(1) Communication interface setting by the Utility
The communication interface setting can be changed
on the Utility's [Communication setting] after writing
