Absolute addressing specifies the location of the address which is currently
being processed.
Accumulators are registers in the CPU which act as intermediate buffers for
load, transfer, comparison, math, and conversion operations.
Actual parameters replace the formal parameters when function blocks (FB)
and functions (FC) are called.
Example: The formal parameter “Start” is replaced by the actual parameter
“I 3.6”.
An address is part of a STEP 7 statement instruction which determines the
medium the processor should use to do something. It can be addressed with
either an absolute or a symbolic name.
An address identifier is the part of the address which contains various data.
The data can include elements such as a value itself (data object) or the size
of a value with which the instruction can, for example, perform a logic
operation. In the instruction statement “L IB10” IB is the address identifier
(“I” indicates the memory input area and “B” indicates a byte in that area).
The address register is part of the registers in the communication part of the
CPU. They act as pointers for register indirect addressing (possible in STL).
An array is a complex data type which consists of data elements of the same
type. These elements can be elementary or complex.
