About the protocol
1) MC Protocol
Keyence PLCs include models that support the MC protocol released by Mitsubishi Electric.
For this reason, some models do not have a dedicated communication driver and communicate using a Mitsubishi Electric driver.
2) Modbus/TCP
Some Keyence modules are compatible with Modbus/TCP.
For this reason, some models do not have a dedicated communications driver and communicate using the Modbus/TCP driver.
