The ‘Serial’ connection lets you choose the ‘Port’, ‘Baud Rate’, ‘Data Bits’, 'Parity’, ‘Stop Bits’, ‘Delay' and ‘Timeout’, being able to also activate ‘Echoback’, ‘RTS Control’ and ‘Reverse CRC’. The ‘Step 2’ enables you to input the ‘Device’ and ‘Register’ numbers, then select the preferred command, with several options to use, specifically ‘Read Holding Registers’, ‘Write Single Holding Register’, ‘Write Holding Register’.
