You can use repeating signaling at a fast pace with a little bit of PLC code to handle the secure release of many bits in an array. See this comment for a suggestion:
A signalling approach to consider to minimize the PLC code required:
Allocate a PLC array tag / file with enough integers to cover all of the momentary button bits you need for your application, plus two more for transmit counter/comparison at the end. Do not create Ignition tags for these PLC tags.
Create a script module in Ignition that holds an array of timestamps for the number of bits needed, plus a persistent counter in a module global. Write two functions:
A message handler that takes…
