To speed up data communication, use consecutive device addresses on the same panel screen. The following situations increase the number of times that the device is read, and reduces the data communication speed between that target machine and the PLC:
• When the number of consecutive addresses exceeds the maximum.
• When an address is designed for division.
• When different device types are used.
The maximum number of consecutive addresses that can be read by each PLC as listed in the table below.
