6.6 Communication settings
This feature is used for external higher systems (PC, GP, etc.) to set the controller's parameters
and to monitor the controller. It can also be used to transmit data to external devices.
No redundant unit addresses may exist along the same communication line. The communication
cable must be a twist pair that supports RS485.
