13. Communication spec

13-1．Overview of communication
With the upper host controller, which can be connected with 31 brushless amplifiers at the maximum via serial com-
munication conforming to RS485, enables the following:
①Rewriting parameters
②Browsing and clearing status and history of trip condition
③Monitoring control status including present position, status, I/O, etc.
④Start and stop of motor
