The point of this is to store the last read in flow context - which you can see if you look at the context tab (next to debug on sidebar)
Yes, the buffer parser has generated good data values from your TCP data.
I dont mean to be rude (I dont know your level of expertise) but it seems to me you could perhaps benefit from a a very short hour watching the tutorials?
I recommend watching this playlist: Node-RED Essentials. The videos are done by the developers of node-red. They're nice & short and to the point. You will understand a whole lot more in about 1 hour. A small investment for a lot of gain.
You aren't rude. I have experince with visual studio programing and PLC (Siemens) programming and node red is quite new for me. Yes, I will check tutorials.
Problem with this:
was my bad understanding. My understanding was send flow.data to msg.payload so vice versa and I wasn't able understand why you did it.
