M1177 
Enable the communication instruction for Delta VFD series inverter. 
ON: VFD-A (Default), OFF: other models of VFD

M1263 
Execute RS instruction with M1263 to set the data receiving as 
completed, when the data receiving stops for a period of time that is 
longer than what D1168 was set (The specific end word to be 
detected for RS instruction to execute an interruption request). If the 
receiving is not started, the detecting will not be started either.

register 
Function 
D1038 
Delay time of data response when PLC is SLAVE in COM2, COM3 
RS-485 communication, Range: 0~10,000. (Unit: 0.1ms). 
By using EASY PLC LINK in COM2, D1038 can be set to send next 
communication data with delay. (unit: one scan cycle) 
D1050~D1055 
Converted data for Modbus communication data processing. PLC 
automatically converts the ASCII data in D1070~D1085 into Hex data 
and stores the 16-bit Hex data into D1050~D1055 
Supported communication instructions: M
ODRD / RDST 
D1070~D1085 
Feedback data (ASCII) of Modbus communication. When PLC’s RS-485 
communication instruction receives feedback signals, the data will be 
saved in the registers D1070~D1085 and then converted into Hex in 
other registers. 
RS instruction is not supported.   
D1089~D1099 
Sent data of Modbus communication. When PLC’s RS-485 
communication instruction (MODRD) sends out data, the data will be 
stored in D1089~D1099. Users can check the sent data in these 
registers. 
RS instruction is not supported
