Addressing Words

To address a group of consecutive words in memory, use one of the
following formats:

Format:

Example:

wordaddr,size

$N0:47,20

filesym:offset,size

@FILE_A:15,25

wordsym,size

@WORD_1,20

You can only address a group of words as the source field in an assignment
command. The destination must be a file that is as large as, or larger than,
the source range.

Figure 5.4

Example for Addressing Consecutive PLCĆ3 Words

$ N 15 : 0, 20

11236

Delimiter

Address of first word

to be transferred.

Number of words to

be transferred.

Addressing a single word is similar only without specifying a size.

Format:

Example:

wordaddr

$N0:47

filesym:offset

@FILE_A:15

wordsym

@WORD_1

The scanner interprets

wordaddr

as an octal value if the addressed word is

in an input or output file. Otherwise, it interprets

wordaddr

as a

decimal value.

You cannot use the pointer data table specifier in an assignment command.
To access words in the pointer section of the PLC-3 data table, you must
use the PLC-3 extended addressing format. For example:

$E3.1.12.0.5.0 (1st word of pointer 5)
$E3.1.12.0.5.1 (2nd word of pointer 5)
