2.31 Attributes of Communication Input
Components
These components are used to write values to the communication channel. Using the action
function enables numeric values to be written to the specified communication channel on the
execution screen. The value written can be read from other devices using Modbus function.
When you assign the communication channel to the computation channel, you will also be able
to write an arbitrary value to other devices using Modbus function.

the device.
If the input value cannot be displayed using five digits, the sixth
digit is rounded to display five significant digits in scientific
notation.
