WorkVisual, how to directly map an array to the inputs

Not possible.

Not possible directly.

You could create a SIGNAL of X bits, then manipulate it on a per-bit basis:

SIGNAL oMyOutPut $OUT[1] TO $OUT[32]
DECL BOOL bMyArray[32]
FOR _nIndex = 1 TO 32
  $OUT[_nIndex] = bMyArray[_nIndex]
ENDFOR

yup...

there is a function

GET_SIG_INF (CHAR SIGNAME[24]:IN)

but i have not found SET_SIG_INF or similar...

you could write something like

SIGNAL es $IN[1] to $IN[4]
SIGNAL fr $IN[5] to $IN[8]
SIGNAL de $IN[9] to $IN[12]
SIGNAL jp $IN[33] to $IN[36]
etc

and read it like

$OUT[666]=Get_Signal_Bit(es,2)

DEFFCT BOOL Get_Signal_Bit(sig_value:in,bit_pos:in)
  DECL INT sig_name, bit_pos, temp
  SWITCH bit_pos
     CASE 1
        temp = sig_value B_AND 1
     CASE 2
        temp = sig_value B_AND 2
     CASE 3
        temp = sig_value B_AND 4
     CASE 4
        temp = sig_value B_AND 8
      DEFAULT
         MsgQuit("Nope...")
     ENDSWITCH
  RETURN temp>0
ENDFCT

i think u can not do like these, but u can do this

at config.dat decl itDECL BOOL MY_ARRAY[10]

MY_ARRAY[1]=FALSE

MY_ARRAY[2]=FALSE

MY_ARRAY[3]=FALSE

MY_ARRAY[4]=FALSE

MY_ARRAY[5]=FALSE

MY_ARRAY[6]=FALSE

MY_ARRAY[7]=FALSE

MY_ARRAY[8]=FALSE

MY_ARRAY[9]=FALSE

MY_ARRAY[10]=FALSE

create new empty sps.sub

FOR I=1 TO 10

MY_ARRAY[I]=$IN[STARTING_OFFSET_BIT_NUMBER+ I -1]
