4.7.5 Cautions When Using Indirect Read and Indirect Write
MICRO/I is capable of specifying a device address offset for certain parts.
When using Logix Native Tag, the offset is specified according to the following rules.
• Offsets cannot be specified for tags with no arrays.
• The array number for tags with arrays changes according to the offset value.
• The offset value will change to match the array numbers in the structure if TIMER, COUNTER, CONTROL or user-
defined structure data type array is created.
• When a user-defined structure is created with an array, if members of the structure also have arrays, change the off-
set value according to the array of the member.
Example: When a device address of [0,0,0] is specified for a INT type tag created with an array element of [2,3,4], if the off-
set value is 1, use data of [0,0,1]. When the offset value is 5, use data of [0,1,1].
Script
[LDR 200] = OFFSET(tag[0,0,0],[LDR 0]);
Operation description
When the value of LDR0 is 1, the value of tag[0,0,1], the device 1 words from tag[0,0,0], is read and stored in
LDR200.
Example: When a device address of [0,0,0].EN is specified for a TIMER type tag created with an array element of [2,3,4], if
the offset value is 1, use data of [0,0,1].EN. When the offset value is 5, use data of [0,1,1].EN.
Script
[LM 200] = OFFSET(tag[0,0,0].EN,[LDR 0]);
Operation description
When the value of LDR0 is 1, the value of tag[0,0,1].EN, the device 1 words from tag[0,0,0].EN, is read and
stored in LDR200.
