MELSECA: Driver does not use maximum block size for read and write requests
Summary
The MELSECA driver does not use an optimized block size for reading and (block)writing variables in a consecutive address range.
Description
The MELSECA driver does not use an optimized block size for reading and (block)writing variables in a consecutive address range.
Solution
When the new driver configuration option "Optimized reading and writing" is enabled the driver uses a block size of up to 960 words. When disabled the driver behaves as before and uses a block size of up to 64 words.
This option is available only when using Mitsubishi Q series PLCs with the 3E binary format.
