Address
When you select Specify via d ialog for the address source, you
enter the variable address here. Addresses should be in decimal
form. Enter either the d ecimal address or the address as a
hexadecimal string with single q uotations marks and use
hex2dec
to convert the address to the proper format. The follo wing
example converts
Ox1000 to decimal form.
4096 = hex2dec('1000');
For this example, you could enter either 4096 or hex2dec('1000')
as the address.
Data type
Use this parameter to specify the type of data that your source
uses. The list includes the supported data types, such as
int8,
uint32,andBoolean,andtheoptionInherit from source for
inheriting the data type from the block input port.
Data length
Specifies the number of elements to copy f rom the source location.
Each element has the data type specified in Data type.
Use offset when reading
When you are reading the input, use this parameter to specify
an offset for the input read. The offset value is in eleme nts with
the assigned data type. The Specify offset s ou rce parameter
becomes available when you check this option.
Specify offset source
The block provides two sources for the offset —
Input port and
Specify via dialog.SelectingInput port configures the block
input to read the offset v alue by adding an input port labeled
src ofs. This port enables your program to change the offset
dynamically during execution by providing the offset value as an
input to the block. If you select
Specify via dialog,youenable
the Offset parameter in this dialog box so yo u can enter the offset
to us e when reading the input data.
