mysterious. Is there an example available?
Up to 512 bytes are transferred in the little endian Endian format between two gateway modules. Output data and input data are shared between the gateway components.

FC 0x10 Write Multiple Registers |
1025–1147 | Input offset |
0–244 bytes |
Have in mind that Modbus registers per definition use 16 bits or two bytes.
Profibus is able to PROFIBUS can use 244 bytes for input/output in each direction.
Therefore, just 122 registers are useable for the access of the 244 bytes.
Can I use RS232 to Ethernet/IP?
Yes, you can to do it with the following components:
modular Gateway Serial https://www.kunbus.com/serial-rx-gateway-module.html for rs232

Do I need 3 gateways each on

PROFINET to integrate 3 Modbus-TCP participants into the system, or is one gateway sufficient?
All modular gateway modules act as slaveslaves.
Therefore, three Modbus TCP masters would then access one slave together.
From a purely technical point of view a , common access is possible considering that the process data 512 bytes each for input and output direction are sufficient.
Furthermore, it has to be considered that the Modbus TCP masters then also write into different registers.
