1 : To run transparent, interrupt modbus RTU poll.
0 : Run modbus RTU poll as normal iConnector, not transparent
Suppose we have: Static IP address: 192.168.1.30 | Port 502
1. iConnector is connected to the Modbus RTU with electric meters, devices, ... via RS485 port;
2. Software / device / PLC ... with Modbus TCP Client connected to iConnector (role as TCP Server) at Static IP
address 192.168.1.30 | Port 502 in internal network;
3. TCP Client sends command to iConnector;
4. iConnector transfers commands from Modbus TCP to RTU and sends to devices and clocks via RS485 port;
5. iConnector waits for the devices to respond;
6. iConnector transfers the response from the RTU to the Modbus TCP and then sends it back to the TCP Client;
7. TCP Client actively closes the connection if it no longer sends command to iConnector.
1. iConnector needs static IP configuration, For example: IP 192.168.1.30 | Port 502

2.3.3 Description of transparent mode operation
(Modbus-TCP enb transparent = 1)
2.3.4 Run Modbus RTU as normal iConnector
(Modbus-TCP enb transparent = 0)
3.3.4.1 TCP Client connects to iConnector via internet
