Illustration

The following screen shows an example of the assisted entry screen of the function:

Address

For Premium PLCs, the types of object possible are:

  • ADDR(STRING),

  • ARRAY [0..5] OF INT.

NOTE: if you enter a value directly in the field, the assisted address entry button turns gray.

Type of object to write.

For Premium PLCs, the possible choices are:

  • ‘%M’ for writing internal bits.

  • ‘%MW’ for writing internal words.

  • ‘%S’ for writing system bits.

  • ‘%SW’ for writing system words.

NOTE: simply choose from the solutions offered in the drop-down menu.

Address of the first object to write

The possible objects of the DINT type are:

  • variables,

  • constants,

  • immediate value.

NOTE: if you enter a constant, an entry field appears to enter the constant. If you enter a variable, it can be localised or not. On the other hand the objects to be written are mandatory located variables.

Number of consecutive objects to write

The possible objects of the INT type are:

  • variables,

  • constants,

  • immediate value.

NOTE: if you enter a constant, an entry field appears to enter the constant. If you enter a variable, it can be localised or not.

Data to write

The data to write zone is an integer array. The size of this array depends on the number of objects to write. This integer array can be located or not.

Report

The report is an array of 4 integers.

NOTE: be careful not to use several identical memory areas for report tables, otherwise the variable read function may not work.
