[foxboro] Multiple MDSCANs in a compound???

Hi list,
I am presently configuring an integrator for communication with GE PLC.
Unfortunately, the  modbus allocation on PLC side is very random and can not
be changed. For example, There are  14 CIN signals in one compounds which
are to be read over the address range 07205 to 09304. This clearly exceeds
PCINPS range of 2048 recommended for MDSCAN block. Also I have to keep the
AINs and COUTs in the same compound. For which the DATYPE would be different
than CIN blocks.

I am wondering is it possible to put more than one MDSCAN blocks in a
compound. FOXDOC mentions that  MDSCAN should be the first block but does
not specify whether it is the only block.

Sincerely appreciate your help.

Thanking in advance
