Set the bus address on the i'catcher (see i'catcher documentation).
If the device is the last one on the RS485 bus, set the terminating switch (Term.) to "On". Since the i'catcher 8-8 has no terminating switches, the bus must be terminated regularly with a 120 Ω resistor between wires A and B.
Various Modbus devices can only be queried together if the serial communication parameters are identical (baud rate, number of data bits, parity, stop bits).
