NOTICE
Coils and registers are addressed explicitly with an off-
set of -1 in Modbus.
I.e. Coil 33 is addressed as Coil 32.
8.10.2 Force/Write Single Coil (05 HEX)
Description
This function forces the coil to either ON or OFF. When
broadcast, the function forces the same coil references in
all attached followers.
Query
The query message specifies the coil 65 (parameter write
control) to be forced. Coil addresses start at zero, that is,
coil 65 is addressed as 64. Force Data=00 00HEX (OFF) or
FF 00HEX (ON).

8.10.3 Force/Write Multiple Coils (0F HEX)
Description
This function forces each coil in a sequence of coils to
