By default, DPT145 transmitters are configured for single transmitter
operation. Serial operation mode is STOP and address is 0.
To configure transmitters for operation on a common line, you must give
each transmitter a unique address (range 0 ... 255) and set their serial
operation mode to POLL.

Change the address of the transmitter using the ADDR command:
addr [0...255]
3.
Set the serial mode of the transmitter to POLL using the SMODE
