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

Note   This function does not accept all classes of VISA sessions. Valid VISA session classes include GPIB-VXI INSTR, GPIB-VXI MEMACC, VXI INSTR, and VXI MEMACC.

source width specifies the width of the source data.

18-bit
216-bit (default)
432-bit
source space specifies the address space of the data to be moved. Refer to the table listed under address space in the VISA In function for more information.

1VXI/VME A16
2VXI/VME A24
3VXI/VME A32
4VXI/VME A64
VISA resource name specifies the resource to be opened. This control also specifies the session and class. Refer to VISA Resource Name Control for more information.
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 specifies the number of elements to move.
dest offset is the offset, in bytes, of the destination device.
error in describes error conditions that occur before this VI or function runs. The default is no error. If an error occurred before this VI or function runs, the VI or function passes the error in value to error out. This VI or function runs normally only if no error occurred before this VI or function runs. If an error occurs while this VI or function runs, it runs normally and sets its own error status in error out. Use the Simple Error Handler or General Error Handler VIs to display the description of the error code. Use error in and error out to check errors and to specify execution order by wiring error out from one node to error in of the next node.
status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred before this VI or function ran or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred before this VI or function ran. The default is FALSE.
code is the error or warning code. The default is 0. If status is TRUE, code is a nonzero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
source specifies the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI or function that produced the error or warning. The default is an empty string.
dest space specifies the address space of the destination. Refer to the table listed under source space for more information.
dest width specifies the width of the destination data. If dest width is not wired, it will be the same as the source width.

18-bit
216-bit (default)
432-bit
VISA resource name out is a copy of the VISA resource name that VISA functions return. Refer to VISA Resource Name Control for more information.
error out contains error information. If error in indicates that an error occurred before this VI or function ran, error out contains the same error information. Otherwise, it describes the error status that this VI or function produces. Right-click the error out front panel indicator and select Explain Error from the shortcut menu for more information about the error.
status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred.
code is the error or warning code. If status is TRUE, code is a nonzero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
source describes the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI or function that produced the error or warning.
