2.3 Communication Ports
DVP-PM offers two built-in communication ports, COM1 (RS-232 communication) COM2 (RS-485 communication)
and one optional communication card, COM3 (RS-232/RS485.communication)
COM1: RS-232 communication port. Main communication port for programming. Can be used as Slave in Modbus
ASCII or RTU mode.
COM2: RS-485 communication port. Can be used as Slave / Master in Modbus ASCII or RTU mode.
COM3: RS-232/RS-485
communication port. Can be used as Slave in Modbus ASCII mode.
