Read Input Status 1x (Modbus Function Code 2)
Use this command to read Input Coils from a slave device. These are single bit
addresses within a Modbus slave device. Unlike Coils 0x, the Input Coils are
Read Only values and cannot be written to by a Modbus Master device. Also like
the Coils 0x, the Internal Address field of this command is defined down to the bit
level within the module memory.
The following illustration shows a sample command to read Modbus addresses
10081 to 10090 of Modbus Slave Device Address 1.
