accesses.

Cautions on setting station numbers
1) Do not overlap station numbers. If the same number is set for two or more stations, the transfer data is
destroyed and normal communication is not possible.
2) It is not necessary to set consecutive station numbers as shown in the setting example above. Any station
numbers in the setting range (00H to 0FH) are applicable.
(Examples: Station numbers may be set arbitrarily. Some station numbers may be skipped.)
