(Optional) Set Additional Communications Response Delay in delay units.
A delay unit is 2/3 of the time required to transmit one character, as calculated for
the port currently in use and the character transmission parameters.
Additional Communications Response Delay is used to synchronize Modbus
communications with hosts that operate at a slower speed than the device. The
value specified here will be added to each response the device sends to the host.
• Default: 0
• Range: 0 to 255
Tip
Do not set Additional Communications Response Delay unless required by your Modbus host.
