Description
This function forces the coil to either ON or OFF. When broadcast, the function forces the same coil references in all attached follow-
ers.
Query
The query telegram specifies the coil 65 (parameter write control) to be forced. Coil addresses start at 0, that is, coil 65 is addressed
as 64. Force data = 00 00 hex (OFF) or FF 00 hex (ON).
Table 72: Query
Response
The normal response is an echo of the query, returned after the coil state has been forced.
