Fixed Slave Address
This parameter controls how the Gateway handles the slave
address field in the Modbus/TCP query. When set to 0, the
Gateway will use the slave address as specified in the query.
When set to a value from 1 to 247, the Gateway will ignore the
slave address field in the Modbus/TCP query and replace it
with the value specified. This option is for compatibilty with
some Modbus/TCP hosts that do not set the Slave address.
When using a fixed address, only one serial port may be used.
Main Menu Option 6.
