[Table 7.2.1] Type of P2P instructions
1) Difference between Write (Send) and Write_NC (Send_NC)
In general P2P communication, it sends the request data at start condition, and then it sends the
request data again at next start condition after receiving the response. If you use “Write_NC
(Send_NC)” instruction, it sends data at next start condition without receiving response. Because of
that, faster communication is available. The Read (Receive) service that requires response does
not support this option.
※ TX data for one start condition should be less than 3KB. If not, communication error may occur
2) For Write_NC, Send_NC instructions, the following version is needed.
