3.1 Configuring the RS–485 Port (continued)

For Modbus some applications, especially involving the ASCII operation mode, it may be

necessary to set a different protocol than the default setting (8 bits, 1 stop bit, no parity).

Menus are available for this in the Extended Settings portion of the configuration

CONFIG mode.

While in the CONFIG mode, press the ↵ button, several times until the Extended Settings

is as shown below. Select On using the t or u buttons.

Press the ↵ button a few times until the menus appear for BITS, PRTY (Parity) and

STOP (Stop Bits). Set each one to the desired setting using the t andu buttons.
