MB_CLIENT example 1: Multiple requests with common TCP connection

Multiple Modbus client requests can be sent over the same connection. To accomplish this,

use the same instance DB, connection ID, and port number.

Only 1 client can be active at any given time. Once a client completes its execution, the next

client begins execution. Your program is responsible for the order of execution.

The example shows both clients writing to the same memory area. Also, a returned error is

captured which is optional.

Network 1: Modbus function 1 - Read 16 output image bits
