Automation Direct 205

Good Morning Everone

I am using an Automation Direct 205 with a 260 processor. I am communicating to several drives using modbus rtu.

My question, is it possible to change the secondary comport settings through ladder logic.

My reason is to make 1 less step for electricians when replacing a processor.

The short answer is yes. You can see how on Bernie Carlton's site http://www.theplcguy.com/Modbus/hooking_up_6.htm

I usually put this in a subroutine or a stage that runs only on the first scan.

Thank you milldrone I have been thumbing through the manuals with no success.
And thank you to Bernie.

Have a Great morning
