Array (File)/Shift Instructions (BSL, BSR, FFL, FFU, LFL, LFU)
FIFO Load (FFL)
410
The FFL instruction copies the Source value to the FIFO.
Operands:
Relay Ladder
Operand
Source
FIFO
Control
Length
Position
If you use a user-defined structure as the data type for the Source or FIFO
operand, use the same structure for both operands.

Description
Data to be stored in the FIFO
FIFO to modify
Specify the first element of the FIFO
Do not use CONTROL.POS in the subscript
Control structure for the operation
Typically use the same CONTROL as the
associated FFU
Maximum number of elements the FIFO can
hold at one time
Next location in the FIFO where the
instruction loads data
Initial value is typically 0
