add_modbus_rtu_signal_multi(slaveid=1, port=None, baudrate=115200, bytesize=DR_EIGHTBITS, parity=DR_PARITY_NONE, stopbits=DR_STOPBITS_ONE, name=None, reg_type=DR_HOLDING_REGISTER, start_address=0, cnt=1)

Features

This function registers the ModbusRTU FC15 & FC16 multiple signal. The Modbus I/O must be set in the Teach Pendant I/O set-up menu. Use this command only for testing if it is difficult to use the Teach Pendant. The Modbus menu is disabled in the Teach Pendant if it is set using this command.

Note

Initial value setting function is not supported.
