For example, after MB_SLAVE is placed in a LAD network, you can go to a previous network
and assign the HR_Start_Offset value. The value must be assigned prior to execution of
MB_SLAVE.
Extended_Addressing
The Extended_Addressing variable is accessed in a similar way as the HR_Start_Offset
reference discussed above except that the Extended_Addressing variable is a boolean
value. The boolean value must be written by an output coil and not a move box.
Modbus slave addressing can be configured to be either a single byte (which is the Modbus
standard) or double byte. Extended addressing is used to address more than 247 devices
within a single network. Selecting extended addressing allows you to address a maximum of
64000 addresses. A Modbus function 1 frame is shown below as an example.
