Modbus Master
A port configured as a virtual Modbus Master actively issues Modbus commands
to other nodes on the Modbus network, supporting up to 100 commands on each
port. The Master ports have an optimized polling characteristic that polls slaves
with communication problems less frequently.

Status Data
Modbus Slave
A port configured as a Modbus slave permits a remote Master to interact with all
data contained in the module. This data can be derived from other Modbus slave
devices on the network, through a Master port, or from the ControlLogix
processor.
