2.9 Communications with a KOYO PLC (MODBUS/TCP Protocol)
Using I/O Message Communications with the MP3000 as the Master

Using I/O Message Communications with the MP3000 as the
Master
This section describes how to communicate with a KOYO PLC by using I/O message communications.
Note: 1. I/O message communications use 1-to-1 communications.
2. When using the MODBUS/TCP protocol to communicate with a KOYO DL-series PLC, you can only read and
write holding registers.
3. When communicating with multiple remote devices or when you need to perform any operations other than
reading and writing to holding registers, such as reading the states of coils and input relays, and changing the
states of coils, use the Send Message function (MSG-SNDE).
