A wired communication network can be spliced and re-united using TREE-COM modules, regardless of their location within a Prolon
network.
(Figure 12)
1. The TREE-COM that is hardwired to the Modbus Master (PL-M2000-RTU) must be set in "ROOT" mode
2. The TREE-COM hardwired to the Follower controllers must be set to "LEAF" mode.
3. TREE-COM modules must have their dipswitches set for the same channel number.
4. The TREE-COM modules will act like a virtual segment of wire.
