Copy
public int configureSwappedFloats(
	int slaveAddr
)

Parameters

slaveAddr
Type: SystemInt32
Modbus address of slave device or unit identifier (Range: 1 - 255) A value of zero configures the behaviour for broadcasting.

Return Value

Type: Int32
BusProtocolErrors.FTALK_SUCCESS on success or BusProtocolErrors.FTALK_ILLEGAL_ARGUMENT_ERROR if argument out of range
Remarks
The data functions operating upon 32-bit float data types can be configured to do a word swap.

Most platforms store floats in IEEE 754 little-endian order which does not need a word swap.
