Preset Multiple Registers (Function Code 16)
Query
Holding registers existing within the controller can have their contents changed
by this message (a maximum of 125 registers). However, because the controller
is actively scanning, it also can alter the content of any holding register at any
time. The values are provided in binary up to the maximum capacity of the
controller (16-bit for the 184/384 and 584); unused high order bits must be set to
zero.
Note: Function codes 5, 6, 15, and 16 are the only messages that will be recognized as valid for
broadcast.
