Is the RS485 port working as a Modbus RTU master?
If the PLC failed to receive a complete response packet from the RTU slave it will usually re-try by resending the packet and get another response. This usually should not be affected by the Modbus TCP server operation. However, if the CPU is kept very busy handling Modbus TCP server activities it is conceivable that the CPU may have less time to handle the serial port.
Also do you know the firmware version of the Nano-10 that you have issue with? You may want to try to update the firmware (if your firmware is >= r83) to see if the performance would improve as there are some recent improvement with the PLC working as a Modbus RTU master.
