The function code received in the query is not an allowable action for the slave.

entire query is rejected, no action is taken, and an exception is generated.

The query data field is invalid or contains an illegal value. This exception can occur when the query data

exceeds the maximum or minimum allowable value for a register or the data does not agree with the

query function. For queries involving multiple registers, if any data is invalid, the entire query is rejected,

no data is written, and an exception is generated.
