The Powerline Transceiver (PLT) User Module gives a control interface within the PLC device for communicating between the application and the FSK Modem. The application may either run on the PLC device or on a separate device that communicates with the PLC device through I2C, RS232, or SPI. The I2C communication implementation is available as a user module option and does not require additional coding to operate.
