Short summary

Name	`MOVE`
→POU type	→function
Category	IEC-block, Numeric
Conform to →IEC-standard	currently restricted (IEC demands data type `ANY` for the input and the return value. Hence the following data types are demanded as well: `LTIME`, `WSTRING`, `WCHAR`, `LDATE_AND_TIME`, `LTIME_OF_DAY`, `LDATE` . Currently, these data types are not supported for the block.)
Graphical interface
Available since	version 1.18.0 (for logi.CAD 3) – initial variant version 1.109.0 (for logi.CAD 3) – enhancement: `STRING` , `CHAR`, user-defined data types and references for `IN` and for the return value

Functionality

The block returns the value connected to the inpu t . Nothing is calculated.

PROGRAM Test
   VAR
      result : REAL;
   END_VAR
   result := MOVE(IN := 1000.0);    (* The variable 'result' evaluates to '1E+3'. *)
END_PROGRAM
