NOTE
The device has an integrated switch to allow data to pass through in line
topology. The device must be receiving control power from the soft
starter for the switch to operate.
NOTE
If the connection between two devices is interrupted, the controller
cannot communicate with devices after the interruption point.
NOTE
Each connection adds a delay to communication with the next device.
The maximum number of devices in a line network is 32. Exceeding this
number may reduce the reliability of the network.
