Write and read access via FC 03 and FC 06
Function codes used
For data exchange between the master and slave, predefined function codes are used for
communication via Modbus.
The Control Unit uses the Modbus function code 03, FC 03 (read holding registers) for
reading, and the Modbus function code 06, FC 06 (preset single register) for writing.
Structure of a read request via Modbus function code 03 (FC 03)
Any valid register address is permitted as the start address.
The controller can access more than one register via FC 03 with a request. The number of
addressed registers is contained in bytes 4 and 5 of the read request.
