To do the data exchange I use a OUC Communication which is established via TCON (and deactivated via TDISCON): For sending and receiving data i have to use the blocks TSend and TRCV: The syntax of a command looks like this (you can see on the left site of the following pic).

Maybe that’s been addressed.
