Concatenating Modbus Long Variables
'This program example demonstrates concatenation (splicing) of Long data type variables

'NOTE: The CR800 uses big-endian word order.
'Declarations
Public Combo As Long 'Variable to hold the combined 32-bit
Public Register(2) As Long 'Array holds two 16-bit ModBus long

'In the case of the CR800 being the ModBus master then the
'ModbusMaster instruction would be used (instead of fixing
'the variables as shown between the BeginProg and SCAN instructions).
