If so, document the change for of the wire capacitance which may necessitate a future reference to make it easy to get in contact change to a lower baud rate. Secondly, fewer SIOX with the module. It will be reset to 1024 by doing modules can be connected to the bus.

However, if there are special SIOX modules connected to the bus, i.e. modems or radio modules, extra timeout may be added to compensate for the delay in these units.

= Last modbus slave address assigned for SIOX. Addresses above this number are on Modbus RTU and addresses less than or equal are on SIOX. A value of 0 or greater than 247 will set it to 255. That means all addresses can be used by the SIOX bus.
