VPRINT V-memory text element – the following is used for “printing to V–memory” text
stored in registers. Use the % followed by the number of characters after V-memory number
for representing the text. If you assign “0” as the number of characters, the function will read
the character count from the first location. Then it will start at the next V-memory location and
read that number of ASCII codes for the text from memory.
Example:
V2000 % 16 16 characters in V2000 to V2007 are printed.
V2000 % 0 The characters in V2001 to Vxxxx (determined by the number in V2000) will be
printed.
VPRINT Bit element – the following is used for “printing to V–memory” the state of the
designated bit in V-memory or a control relay bit. The bit element can be assigned by the
designating point (.) and bit number preceded by the V-memory number or relay number. The
output type is described as shown in the table below.
Example:
V2000 . 15 Prints the status of bit 15 in V2000, in 1/0 format
C100 Prints the status of C100 in 1/0 format
C100 : BOOL Prints the status of C100 in TRUE/FALSE format
C100 : ON/OFF Prints the status of C100 in ON/OFF format
V2000.15 : BOOL Prints the status of bit 15 in V2000 in TRUE/FALSE format
The maximum numbers of characters you can VPRINT is 128. The number of characters
required for each element, regardless of whether the :S, :C0 or :0 modifiers are used, is listed
in the table below.
