Message Transfer Sizes
The maximum amount of application data you can send or receive
depends on whether you configure the MSG instruction as connected
or unconnected. The size of the application data does not include the
parameters in the Read and Write services.
For TCP sockets, if the application data is larger than the maximum
size, you can issue multiple Reads or Writes to receive or send the
entire application message.
For UDP sockets, the size application data cannot exceed the
maximums listed for Read and Write services.
