5.7.2 Configuring the device address
The device address must always be configured for a MODBUS slave. The valid device addresses are
in a range from 1 to 247. In a MODBUS RS485 network, each address can only be assigned once.
If an address is not configured correctly, the device is not recognized by the MODBUS master. All
measuring devices are delivered from the factory with the device address 247 and with the
"software addressing" address mode.
