slave in a local RS-485 network. Depending on whether the gateway acts as a
Modbus master or as a Modbus slave and on the number of devices connected to
the RS-485 network device the four jumpers provided by the module has to be
set according to Table 6. The jumpers set the pull high and pull down resistors
for the RS-485 port (Figure 9).
