DF1 Addressing 
DF1 addressing is used by the MSTR ladder logic function when the specified port is 
configured for one of the DF1 protocols. Modbus addressing must be used in all other ladder 
logic program functions. 
DF1 addressing is used by function master_message when the specified port is configured 
for one of the DF1 protocols. The functions dbase, setdbase, setABConfiguration and 
getABConfiguration also support DF1 addressing.  
All DF1 addresses are absolute word addresses beginning with the first 16-bit register in the 
I/O database at address 0.
