A network typically has a Master that “manages” communication by means of “commands,” and Slaves that carry out these
commands.
GTF modules are considered Slaves to the network master, which is usually a supervision terminal or a PLC.
It is positively identified by means of a node address (ID) set on rotary switches (tens + units).
A maximum of 99 GTF, modules can be installed in a serial network, with node address selectable from “01” to “99”
GTF modules have a ModBus serial (Optional)
The MODBUS RTU port 1 has the following factory settings (default):
Parameter Default Range

1...99
BaudRate 19,2Kbit/s 1200...19200bit/s
Parity None Odd/Even/None
