I'm using Node-RED to read input from a Modbus server more specifically the MOXA ioLogik E2262 and the manual for the controller says if you use Function 4 from the modbus commands to read an analogue signal, the data type returned will be "1 word".

So I assume the Modbus Flex Getter node should be outputting "1 word"/ "2 bytes". I'm trying to read a temperature value so I'd like it to be a float value. Looking at the Modbus response though,I'm getting "65535" and I can't figure out what this is.

Can someone please help me with this ?
