Okay, I'm not sure if I'm dumb or if GE just does everything bass-ackwards from Allen-Bradley, but I can't figure out how to move 16 consecutive input or output bits into a 16-bit WORD variable, or vice versa. GE 90-70 PLC with Proficy ME Software.
Right now I have a MOVE_BOOL block of length 16 with In=%M00100 and Q=%Q00145
There is a 16-bit "WORD" variable located at %M00100
I think this should move the values of %M00100 - %M00116 into %Q00145 - %Q00161 and light the corresponding outputs, but that's not really what it's doing; and I can't find any rhyme or reason to why the outputs light up in odd patterns instead of the binary of the word in %M00100.
