65536 (or 0-65535 in some notations).
 Function Code 2 (0x02): Read Discrete Inputs. Similar address range to coils.
 Function Code 3 (0x03): Read Holding Registers. Commonly associated with address
range 40001-49999 (or 40000-49999).
 Function Code 4 (0x04): Read Input Registers. Commonly associated with address
range 30001-39999 (or 30000-39999).
 Function Code 5 (0x05): Write Single Coil.
 Function Code 6 (0x06): Write Single Holding Register.
 Function Code 15 (0x0F): Write Multiple Coils.
 Function Code 16 (0x10): Write Multiple Holding Registers.
MODBUS ADDRESS CALCULATION FORMULA:

DCS ADDRESS =
((LAST 3 DIGITS OF PLC ADDRESS * 2) – 1) + 42000

EXAMPLE :1
41057 IS THE PLC ADDRESS, DCS ADDRESS IS
= ((057*2) – 1) + 42000
= (114-1) + 42000
= 42113 is the DCS address
