The 1785-KA5 module has two LINK_ID addresses: one for its DH485
side and one for its DH+ side. See the following table to set switches 1-8
of SW-3.
Important: Do not use a LINK_ID of 0 (zero). This address is reserved. If
you have more than one 1785-KA5 module on a single physical network,
the LINK_IDs for the two modules must be the same.
