MB_CLIENT example 2: Multiple requests with different TCP connections
Modbus client requests can be sent over different connections. To accomplish this, different
instance DBs, IP addresses, and connection IDs must be used.
The port number must be different if the connections are established to the same Modbus
server. If the connections are on different servers, there is no port number restriction.
The example shows both clients writing to the same memory area. Also, a returned error is
captured which is optional.
