SR55 Modbus communication is based on reading or writing equipment parameters from or
to the holding registers. The data addressing is zero offset, such that the parameter Modbus
address corresponds to the register number.

message Timing
In the RTU mode there is no specific start or stop byte that marks the beginning or the end
of a message. Indication of when a new message begins or when it ends is achieved by the
absence of data transmission for a minimum period of 3.5 times the transmission time of a
data byte. Thus, in case a message is transmitted after this minimum time has elapsed; the
network elements will assume that the first received character represents the beginning of a
new message.
