Scott,
Thanks for your answer!
Scan rate makes no difference. The FBM230 doesn't even pick the first response 
message from the slave.
I'm not using an xml device config file, as my driver version is 1.1 CRC 
F706988.
Should I upgrade? Do you think an upgrade can help solve this issue?
Regards
Pablo Lioi
