How to set dbx0.0 and increment for 255 ncoder revolutions?

I have a Data Block with ARRAY[1..225] bool type, 255 are steps. I wish to set dbx0.0 and increment for 255 steps every time my encoder sends a Z pulse. how do I shift that bit  upto 255 steps for 255 encoder revolutions.

Split from shift register.

Hi Murio

if you are not expert in ST and you really need the code to be written in ladder or FUP then take a look to the attachment, however it would be much better to write the code using ST, it would be much more performing, believe me.

Thanks alot. 

I am doing it in STL but I only managed to shift one byte. Let me try your way will let you know 😊

Hi,

U should use Arrays & SCL language.

Hi Murio

i test it on simulator and it works fine, it sets each bit of #MyArray_Bits from 0 to 255, anyway you can also try to write it in structured text SCL as per the attachment (TIA)

Oh.... perfect.. it works like clock.. thank you. 

Out of curiosity i would love to see how you would tackle the same i STL..

Kind Regards.  

Hi Murio

here comes the STL version, easier than the LAD version, right?However the best choice remains the structured language SCL, no doubt about it.

Awesome, totally agree that SCL is the best. Its a high time i fell in love with it. STL is better than LAD. I now undersand now where i was going wrong before.

Thanks for the help, stay safe.
