12.2.3.9 Function Code FC16 (Write Multiple Registers)
This function writes a sequence of registers in a slave device in word format.
Request
The Request specifies the reference number (starting register), the word count
(number of registers to write), and the register data . The data is sent as 2 bytes
per register. The registers are zero-based; therefore, the first output is at address
0.
Example: Set data in registers 0 and 1
