B&B Electronics, Inc.
Typical connection of the I/O port circuits:
The I/O Port registers are read and written using MODBUS ASCII slave protocol over serial
port 1. Using this protocol, it is possible to configure the I/O board, read the input status, and control
the output. The I/O port communicates at 9600 baud, 8 bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit (8N1).
