Revision B 47
4.5.3.2.5 Interface
The Interface assigns what communication port the Modbus® slave or Wireless radio is connected to and
the channel will get its data from. The communication port that is assigned here must be configured as a
Modbus® Master or Wireless Monitor in the Communications Menu (see section 2.5.1).
4.5.3.2.6 Slave Byte Order
If Modbus® 32 BIT is selected, a Byte Order entry appears at the bottom of the menu. This determines
WORD and BYTE alignment of data at the remote Modbus® transmitter when sending its 4 byte IEEE
Floating Point values. With the select bar on this entry, the Edit
toggles between the 4 possible modes.
4.5.3.2.7 Marker Menu
Marker Menu setup is discussed in Chapter 4.13.

4.5.4.1 Slave Byte Order
Slave Byte Order determines Word and Byte alignment of data at the remote Modbus® transmitter when
sending its 4 byte IEEE Floating Point values. With the select bar on this entry, Edit toggles between the 4
possible modes. Min / Max Raw values are not used in this mode.
4.5.4.2 Master Timeout
The time in milliseconds before the unit gives up on a Modbus® request and moves on to the next channel.
After three consecutive timeouts, the channel enters the Comm Error state.
4.5.4.3 Master Poll Delay
The time in milliseconds the unit will delay between Modbus® master requests.
Typical installation utilize Dynamic IP Configuration as described below. In installations which require
Static IP configuration refer to your operating systems instructions to complete the connection after
completing the steps in Chapter 4.4.2.
