I have a program which sequentially places byte representations of characters from a string into an array. FUNCTION_BLOCK MoveBytesFromString VAR_IN_OUT abRxBuf: ARRAY [0..79] OF BYTE; END_VAR VAR testString : STRING := '$0A$R$L$TTesting,123...$94$86$0A'; iCount: DINT; END_VAR ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- // clear the buffer MEM.MemFill(ADR(abRxBuf), 80, 0); FOR iCount := 0 TO LEN(testString) - 1 DO // account for undesired null terminator...
