A silent interval of more than 10 ms
3.2 ADR (communication address)
Valid communication addresses are in the range of 0 to 254. a communication
address equal to 0, means broadcast to all AC drives (AMD). In this case, the AMD
will not reply any message to the master device.
For example, communication to AMD with address 16 decimal:
ASCII mode: (ADR 1, ADR 0) = ’1’,’0’ => ‘1’=31H, ‘0’=30H
RTU mode: (ADR) = 10H
3.3 CMD (command code) and DATA (data character)
The format of data characters depends on the command code. The available
command codes are described as followed:
