Moves length elements of the given source width from the specified source address space and offset to the specified destination address space and offset.

Inputs/Outputs
source width (16-bit: 2)
—
source width specifies the width of the source data. This input accepts the following values.
source space (A16: 1)
—
source space specifies the address space of the data to be moved. Refer to the table listed under address space in the VISA In 8 function for more information.
VISA resource name
—
VISA resource name specifies the resource to be opened. The VISA resource name control also specifies the session and class.
source offset (0)
—
source offset is the offset (in bytes) of the device to read from. It is the offset address relative to the device's allocated address base for the corresponding specified address space. For example, if source space specifies VXI/VME A16, source offset specifies the offset from the logical address base address of the VXI device specified. If source space specifies VXI/VME A24, A32, or A64, source offset specifies the offset from the base address of the VXI device's memory space allocated by the VXI Resource Manager within VXI A24 or A32.
length
—
length specifies the number of elements to move.
dest offset (0)
—
dest offset is the offset, in bytes, of the destination device.
error in (no error)
—
error in describes error conditions that occur before this node runs. This input provides standard error in functionality.
dest space (A16: 1)
—
dest space specifies the address space of the destination. Refer to the table listed under source space for more information.
dest width (same as source)
—
dest width specifies the width of the destination data. If dest width is not wired, it will be the same as the source width. This input accepts the following values.
VISA resource name out
—
VISA resource name out is a copy of the VISA resource name that VISA functions return.
error out
—
error out contains error information. This output provides standard error out functionality. |
