Block Transfer Write Example
The following example illustrates a block transfer write. The
PanelView terminal is assigned to rack #3, starting module group 0.
One of the PanelView objects, a bar graph display addressed as N7:0,
reads a portion of the data block being transferred.

➀
The PLC receives and stores data from an
input device, in this example a flow sensor.
➁ The PLC ladder logic program initiates a
block transfer of a data block (10 words)
containing the screen display data.
Bar Graph Object with
Tag Name ’Flow Rate’ = Address N7:5
➂ The PanelView terminal receives the data and
determines the starting address for the write
operation by matching the block size with the
address entered in the Block Transfer dialog.
➄ The PanelView updates the bar graph display
using the data from the controller.
