5.6 The MTL831C #2 Tab
This tab functions exactly the same as the MTL831C #1 tab. The only difference is
that it contains the configuration data for the #2 MTL831C. The channel numbers
are different so the Modbus system can distinguish the two units. MTL831 #1
shows up as channels 1-16 and MTL831 #2 shows up as channels 17-32. So the
channel numbers in the tabs are identified by their Modbus channel number. To
make it easier to identify the channel on the physical unit, we have put a number in
parenthesis under the channel number which corresponds to the physical channel
on the MTL831C #2(1-16).
The figure below shows what the MTL831C #2 tab looks like when connected to
an MTL838C and MTL831C #1. Notice that there is no Reading because there is
no MTL831C #2 connected. However, the live configuration data is populated in
the white rectangles because it is stored in the MTL838C and downloaded to the
MTL831C when the MTL838C detects it.
