Exampe ID settings
If the connected unit has ID=1 (seen from the com module), and the com
module has ID offset=200, the SRO Modbus ID is “201” (200 + 1, seen from
the PLC).

Termination
Modbus RS 485 communication requires bus termination. Therefore the con-
nected COM module’s termination dip switch is set in “ON” position.
