I am having a bit of trouble trying to find 1 instruction that will move the value of “0” into multiple arrays in one shot? Is this possible or do you have to use separate instructions for each array? Thanks for any help in advance.

Usually you will reset one array at a time. The above thread is an example.
What PLC are you working on?

Thanks 1769-L32E. Can I make a tag with 120 arrays and then 10 arrays inside of each of those 120 arrays? Then I could use 1 instruction to shove a value of 0 inside all of the 120 arrays at once right?

Fill instruction will do just that.

You can use the CLR instruction, but I think this only does 1 array at a time (so you need to use a separate CLR instruction for each array)
