PI Interface for Modbus Ethernet PLC

Optimization

Since the interface will assemble related tags into groups in order to maximize the number of tag values requested in a single Modbus read command, it is best for the user to configure related tags in a manner in which tag groups can be leveraged to minimize the number of requests for the tag data. In other words, the more related tags whose data offsets fit within the range of offsets of a given tag group the better.

For example, assume that a user creates 100 tags with the attribute values specified in the following table:
