In the case of M00100: The 0th bit of 10th word of M device area is set as starting address of bit reading
area.
● Starting address of word reading area: Indicates the starting address of word reading area with 4 digits.
Ex.) In the case of M00200: The 200th word of M device area is set as starting address of word reading
area.
● Starting address of word writing area: Indicates the starting address of word writing area with 4 digits.
Ex.) In the case of M00300: The 300th word of M device area is set as starting address of word writing

Example 1) If the user wants to read Oth(0 of 0~65535) of No. 3 (Input Register: Read only),
Set up 300000 or 30 if 0 is selected for “Start Offset Address”
Set up 300001 or 31 if 1 is selected for “Start Offset Address”
Example 2) If the user wants to read 17th(17 of 0~65535) of No. 4 (Holding Register),
Set up 400017 or 417 if 0 is selected for “Start Offset Address”
Set up 400018 or 418 if 1 is selected for “Start Offset Address”
2) Digital
Delimiter (0 or 1, or 3 or 4) +0~65535
(if “Start Offset Address” is set up to start from 1 in the configuration information , it will be 1~65536)
Example 1) If the user wants to read Oth(0 of 0~65535) of No. 0 (Coil Status : Read/Write),
Set up 000000 or 00 if 0 is selected for “Start Offset Address”
Set up 000001 or 01 if 1 is selected for “Start Offset Address”
