Operation of the Communications Request
The figure and text below explains how Communications Requests are executed to complete a
data read from the remote Modbus/TCP device. The figure specifically illustrates the successful
operation of a data read.

1.
A Communications Request begins when there is power flow to a COMMREQ function in
the client PLC. At this time, the Command Block data is sent from the PLC CPU to the
Ethernet Interface.
2. The COMMREQ Status word (CRS word) is returned immediately if the Command Block is
invalid. If the syntax is correct, then the CRS word is returned after the transfer of data..
