										<title>I was not using both Modbus ports on my MVI56-MCM module, so I set all the port parameters for the unused port to zeros to disable the port and now my module is faulted and will not restart.  Why?</title>
										<link>https://www.prosoft-technology.com/kb/article.php?id=162</link>
										<description><![CDATA[On some older modules, setting the baud rate to zero for either Modbus port will cause the entire module to fault.
