Table functions operate on these types of data:
INT
Signed integer
DINT
Double precision signed integer
BOOL †
Bit data type
BYTE
Byte data type
WORD
Word data type
† Applies to Array Move only
10.8.1 Table Functions Array Move
The Array Move function copies a specified number of elements from a source array to a
destination array. When the function receives power flow, it copies the number of
elements specified from the input array, starting at the indexed location. The function then
writes the copied elements to the output array starting with the indexed location.
For bit data, when word-oriented memory is selected for the parameters of the source
array and/or destination array starting address, the least significant bit of the specified
word is the first bit of the array.
The indices in an Array Move instruction are 1-based. In using an Array Move, no
element outside either the source or destination arrays (as specified by their starting
address and length) may be referenced.
The OK output receives power flow unless one of the following occurs:
• Enable is OFF
• (N + SNX – 1) is greater than (length)
• (N + DNX – 1) is greater than (length)
