Modbus is TCP on any platform by definition I think, whereas DirectSoft comms can be whichever you set up.
I retract my earlier statement that half of all politicians are crooks.  Half of all politicians are NOT crooks.  There.

Modbus/TCP is by definition TCP. There is a UDP spec, but we haven't implemented it.
