File Instructions 14-11
FFU - First In, First Out
(FIFO) Unload
Instruction Type: output
On a false-to-true rung transition, the FFU instruction unloads words or
long words from a user-created file called a FIFO stack. The data is
unloaded using first-in, first-out order. After the unload completes, the
data in the stack is shifted one element toward the top of the stack and
the last element is zeroed out. Instruction parameters have been
programmed in the FFL - FFU instruction pair shown below.
