During pass-through operation, write messages received at the MVI56E-MNETR 
server write messages through to the processor. It is the responsibility of the 
ladder logic to process the message received using this feature. Two data 
objects are required for this mode: a variable to hold the length of the message 
and a buffer to hold the message. 
This information is passed from the module to the processor using a block 
identification code of 9996 if the unformatted pass-through mode (code 1) is 
selected as the pass through mode in the configuration file. Word one of this 
block contains the length of the message and the message starts at word 3. 
Other controller tags are required to store the controlled values contained in 
these messages. The Modbus protocol supports control of binary output (coils - 
functions 5 and 15) and registers (functions 6 and 16). 
Additionally, formatted message blocks can be sent from the module to the 
processor when the pass-through option is selected using the format selection 
(codes 2 or 3 in the MNET.CFG file). These blocks require less decoding than 
the unformatted blocks. Refer to the user manual for a full discussion on utilizing 
the pass-through option in an application. 
The following table describes the structure of this object.
