I am trying to understand this MOV instruction address. N[N7:29]:19. In N7:29 mapped to 19 or vise versa?

The value of N7:29 will determine where the MOV is looking. For example if the value of N7:29 is a 12, the instruction will be trying to use address N12:19.

Yes it's indirect addressing. So the an7:29 probably increments up thus causing it to MOV a bunch of data.
