A while back, the ability to read multiple registers was added to sxw. That has greatly increased the performance of our modbus interfaces.
During the discussions that prompted that revision, adding the functionality to block write was discussed. There is documentation that block writing is, both, available and not available.
Through testing I have determined the latter to be true.
I am kind-of shocked to find that the effort was taken to allow multi-read functionality but not multi-write.
While the performance gains of writing multiple registers isn't quite as substantial as reading, there are some cases where it is required.
As an example, to clear alarms on liebert RPP's a block of 5 registers must be wrote in a single group. 4 registers comprise the password and the final one is a bitmask of the alarms you want to clear.
There is no way to accomplish this without block write capability.
