Classic SL 150 and modbus

I see from several posted images of SL Classics that the ethernet is completely missing from the main PCB,
it seems there is no ethernet controller IC.
Just before I order several SL 150s can I just confirm that the RS232 serial ports are capable of modbus RTU
I want to connect one of my Arduino web servers that works cleanly with a standard Classic 150 and get it to work with the SL's modbus.
There have not been any changes to the modbus register map specific to the SL?
The SL also supports the WBjr?
thanks

That is correct the SL is Ethernet-less

The RS232 is the same as the Classic though, All the same modbus info is still there. And yes the SL supports the WBjr.
