3) Variable
Input variable’s address to read actually. It shall be ASCII value within 16 characters.
Others than figure, capital/small letter, ‘%’ and ’.’ are not allowed for the variable name.
Notes
(1) Device data type of each block shall be surely identical. If the data type of the first block is Word,
and that of the second is Double Word, an error may occur.
(2) If data type is Bit, the data format will be one byte (HEX). In other words, if BIT value is 0, the
data will be h00 and if the value is 1, the data will be h01.
(3) When Bit write function is used, the address must be calculated in Bit unit.
For example, to write a data in the hC (12
th
) bit of M172 word, the Bit address can be calculated
as follow processing.
Wrong Expression: %MX172C
Right Expression: 172(Word number) x 16 + 12(Bit number) = 2764
 %MX2764
