| On a serial bus, valid device addresses are **1–247**. Address **0 is the broadcast address** — a write sent to unit 0 goes to every device on the bus and none of them reply, so a read addressed to unit 0 will always time out. Addresses 248–255 are reserved. Native Modbus TCP devices often ignore the unit ID altogether (`0`, `1`, and `255` are all common), but it matters as soon as a gateway sits in front of serial devices. | ||

There was a problem hiding this comment.
@Yndira-E When we migrate the docs, we need to check for {% note %} support too
