Connecting Devices to WT4200 Modbus Receiver
The WT4200 Modbus Receiver is a Modbus interface between
the Com’X and the WT4200 radio transmitters.
Each transmitter is seen as a different channel for the WT4200 Modbus Receiver.
You must configure the WT4200 Modbus Receiver before adding it to the Com'X device list and connecting transmitters. WT4200 configuration determines to which channel the transmitter can be added. Refer to the PowerLogic WT4100 series / WT4200 series long-range RF wireless devices user manual for wireless receiver programming instructions.
