GraceSense Hot Spot Monitor Figure 27: Typical Serial Topology for HSM Modules. Once a section of MODBUS RTU fiber has been cut, it can only be cut shorter, therefore be careful to ensure that enough length has been allocated to reach the HSM Module. It is best to leave at least 25-50 mm (1-2") of extra fiber as a precautionary measure.
