Setting the slide switch to the bottom position gives you the ability to assign comm
parameters to the port in software; the following parameters are valid.
Rear Panel Switches
Two rotary switches (refer to the following illustration) are located on the rear panel
of the CPU. They are used for setting Modbus Plus node and Modbus port
addresses.
NOTE: The highest address that may be set with these switches is 64.
SW1 (the top switch) sets the upper digit (tens) of the address; SW2 (the bottom
switch) sets the lower digit (ones) of the address. The illustration below shows the
correct setting for an example address of 11.
The following figure shows SW1 and SW2.
