Rear Panel
Switches
Two rotary switches (refer to the illustration and table that follow) are located on the
rear panel of the CPU. They are used for setting the Modbus Plus node and Modbus
port addresses.
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 switches.
The following table shows the SW1 and SW2 address settings.
Note: The highest address that may be set with these switches is 64.
