4.1 DIP switch for configuration method selection
The sensor is a Modbus RTU (RS-485) slave device. It can be configured with a
Modbus master when DIP2-Position 7 is OFF (default setting).
The sensor has two sets of DIP switches: DIP1 and DIP2. It can be manually
configured with DIP switches when DIP2-Position 7 is ON.
For details, see DIP switch configuration [➙ 9].
