I'm planning to acquire instrument status from multiple address locations in a continous loop (modbus RTU over RS-232). I'm running an ESS thermal cycle using a Environtronics chamber controlled by a single Watlow F4, and would like monitoring profile status, temp, and a few other inputs, at register address locations example 0, 200, 4122, 4126, 5xxx, 6xxx, and so on. The read from register routine has 2 inputs for this: Register Address and Number of Registers. This works great for a range of adjacent addresses (4100-4131), however the register locations of interest are not adjacent. Is there a way to query a separate range of registers through a single send/receive? Running it once is taking <200ms, as opposed to looping the read from register utility 10-20 times which can take >2 seconds.
