help with omron addressing

hey guys

just wondering if someone could help me with some omron addressing

i am looking at a CQM1 program on a customers machine and there are a lot of rungs with MOV instructions

i can understand where the destination word is, but i am unsure of the source

here is a typical example of one of the MOV instructions

MOV #2 HR6

i'm understanding this means move the contents of word 2 to word HR6, but in what memory area is word 2?

what does the # mean?

thanks in advance for your insight

# is a HEX constant.

CQM1 is BCD based, therefore the #.

i am still a little confused

#2 in hex is still 2.. so the data it is moving is from word 2, but from what memory area?? IR2? from somewhere else??

or is it just moving the hex number 2 (not moving a word) INTO HR6?

Yes you move hex 2 into address HR6
