Guys

I have a problem.

On my HMI I have set a structure that maps to an array in a DB.

I need to map the bits from this Array into NON consecutive areas in a number of data blocks.

what I need to do is change the destination block and the bit, this is complicated by the fact that one of the users is likely to use multi- instance, so all the mapping will be to various destinations in a single data block.

Bit stumped, got as far as changing the data block and at a loss at how to address to variable bit address.

Any help as always greatly appreciated.
 
Instead of "pushing" the data from the array out to the various destinations, why not "pull" the data from the array into the other areas as required?
