UNEXPECTED BEHAVIOR OF APPLICATION
Do not use wrong address parameters. For instance:
  • Do not set an address parameter that does not correspond to the targeted equipment.
  • Do not use value higher than 98 in ADDR function (field "e" for the equipment address) when using CPU embedded serial port or TSXSCY21601 channel 0 or 1.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or equipment damage.
