The default values reflect the maximum number of read/write words.

You can change the I/O data size for a module by reducing the
number of words mapped into the adapter module, as shown in
optimal sizes.

Optimal sizes are the settings that provide optimal data to and from
the I/O module. You need a software configuration tool to change the
size. Make sure the FLEX I/O adapter is compatible with the
configuration tool you choose.

The optimal settings provide the fastest network time by only
mapping read and write words used by the I/O modules. If you
reduce your data sizes to only include optimal data, you can only
change your configuration data with a software tool. If you need to
change configuration information on an optimal basis, your data size
must be large enough to include the necessary words.
