RSLogix 500 multiple Bit Shift

[Antony17 0]

Hi PLC's master! I've been searching for a while on how to do a ''multiple bit shift'' but I have found nothing.  

What I want to do is to shift the 8 ''upper bit'' of a word to the 8 ''lower bit''. I've found a way with 8 BSR (bit shift right) and the .DN, (see the picture attach) but I'm sure that there is a better way to do it! 

Anyone have idea of how can I shift those 8 bits in one time? 

Thanks for the help!

Dividing the source by 256 will effectively shift the bits 8 places to the right.  You may need to pass it through a MVM to clean up the results.
