15.9 FNC 78 – FROM / Read From A Special Function Block
Outline
This instruction reads the contents of buffer memories (BMF) in a special extension unit/block attached to a PLC.
When a large capacity of buffer memory (BFM) data is read by this instruction, a watchdog timer error may occur.
When bad effect is not given to the control even if data to be read is divided, use RBFM (FNC278) instruction.
