    Appendix D Modbus Coils Coils The data collection coil will enable/disable sampling. It will start a sequence of samples if the repeat count has been set. The data available coil is used to both inform the host that data is now available and to delete the next queued data packet (if desired).

    Data Packet Processing Appendix D Modbus Data Packet Processing The unit can provide real-time data or queued data or both. There is only one section of input registers assigned for data to handle this information. If the unit is set up to queue data then the data shown is the oldest data in the queue. The data available coil bit will be set if there is data in the queue.
