Sys.IData setting and getting via gpascii

[paddax]

Is there a gpascii method for getting and setting IData, DData etc as a block rather than issuing single commands.

 

As an example if I have 10,000 IData elements, to read or write all of them appears to be 10,000 discrete communications and this is going to take a long time (probably about 10 seconds).

 

There are methods for obtaining values for a number of contiguous P,M,Q etc variables e.g. P1..4, but I can't see any method for setting a set of contiguous variables e.g. P1..4=1,2,3,4

 

I just realised that's actually two questions, I hope you don't mind

You can use the following commands for reading/writing data blocks:

 

For reading n registers, starting at register x:

Sys.Idata[x],n

 

For writing n registers, starting at register x:

Sys.Idata[x]={value for x},{value for x+1}, ... ,{value for x+n-1}

Thanks that's perfect:)

 

Is this syntax is mentioned in the manual?

I have to double check.
