A request can be directed to a certain slave ore be send to all slaves as broadcast mes-
sage. For the identification of a broadcast message you have to set bit 5 to 1 in the ADR
byte. Here the slave addr
. (bit 0 ... 4) is ignored. In opposite to a "normal" send command,
the broadcast does not require a telegram evaluation via FC/SFC 218 SER_RCV. Only
write commands may be sent as broadcast.
