I'm trying to integrate a Balluff to read RFID tags on different containers.  
Model Number # BIS0187 - BIS V-6107-039-C105  
[Unit Webpage](https://www.balluff.com/local/us/productfinder/product/?key=BIS0187#/)

Plan was to use the built in TCP Request module, but the communication protocol for the Balluff is a Request, Reply, Acknowledge, Reply method.

I can open the initial communication and get a response that the unit is ready to transmit the tag data, but can't move forward with acknowledging that reponse...

Page 88 of the manual located at the link below is what we are trying to accomplish.

If anyone has an recommendation, i would greatly appreciate it. This is the first TCP Socket application I have attempted with NodeRed
