MOVE

Move value to specified destination

MOVE assigns the unchanged value of the input variable to the output variable.

Parameters

Input

Unnamed input (ANY): source

Output

Unnamed output (ANY)

output as input

destination

Remarks

When using the data type STRING with small PLCs like FP-e or FP0, make sure that the length of the result string is equal to or greater than the length of the source string.

Example

POU header

All input and output variables used for programming this function have been declared in the POU header. The same POU header is used for all programming languages.

	VAR
		input_value: INT:=0;
			(*all types allowed*)
		output_value: INT:=0;
			(*all types allowed*)
	END_VAR

In this example the input variable input_value has been declared. Instead, you may enter a constant directly at the input contact of a function.

POU body

Input_value is assigned to output_value without being modified.
