3.2 Non addressed transparent mode

This mode is entered then the address bits are all set to the off position and the modbus
disable bit is set to on. The meter type field is ignored.
ON
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
In this mode the unit acts as a true RS232 to RS485 converter and all data on both ports
are forwarded to the other port. This mode is useful to daisy chain meters via RS485
when they are spaced further than the RS232 limit.
