Introduction
The communication functions are the same as those described in the communication functions on
Modbus.
Installation Principle
Although a remote Modbus station does not have an X-Way format address, each communication
function will use an X-Way format address to designate a remote IP station.
For each remote Modbus station, you must configure the pair in the correspondence table (IP address,
{network.station} X-Way) where:
network: network number of the local X-Way station
station: 100 to 164 = logical number of the X-Way station
For example, the X-Way address {2.108} is associated with the IP address 139.160.2.8.
This address will only be used by the local Premium module. It is not sent over the network.
In the case of a remote Premium station configured with the Modbus protocol, you should give an X-Way
station address that takes the number of the local station and increments it by 100.
Data Exchange
The following requests are addressed to the device with which you wish to perform variable read or write
operations:
NOTE:
The timeout value for READ_VAR is user-configurable as follows:
If you enter a 0 as the timeout value, the block will never timeout.
If you enter a non-zero value, the block will timeout at the non-zero value you entered.

NOTE: In server mode only, an ETY module can support function code 16#16, allowing it to mask the
writing of a specified word.
