The string is an array of bytes: the first byte is the maximal length; the second byte is the actual length of the string. From the third byte are the characters, each character takes one byte. Make a move of byte, with absolute addressing. 2 – You want convert a string in an array of char.This case is an extension of the case 1. You can move all characters, byte a byte, or just take the string from the third byte as an array of characters.

Unfortunately only the first experience with S7 1200. Could you give me an example project in both cases? I think this is useful to other users. Thanks
