Menu 2: ModBus RTU connection

The switchgear is equipped with an RS485 interface for connection via ModBus RTU. Different parameters can be read and also changed to some extent via the interface. In this case, the switchgear works as a Modbus slave. An overview of individual parameters and a description of the data types used are shown in the appendix.
