19.7 FNC149 – SORT2 / Sort Tabulated Data 2
Outline
This instruction sorts a data table consisting of data (lines) and group data (columns) based on a specified group data
(column) sorted by line in either ascending or descending order. This instruction stores the data (lines) in serial
devices facilitating the addition of data (lines).
On the other hand, the SORT (FNC 69) instruction stores the group data (columns) in serial devices, and sorts a table
in ascending order only.
→ For SORT (FNC 69) instruction, refer to Section 14.10.

Explanation of function and operation
1. 16-bit operation (SORT2)
In the data table (sorting source) having (m1 x m2) points from , data lines are sorted in the ascending or
descending order based on the group data in column No. "n", and the result is stored in the data table (occupying m1
x m2 points) from .
→ For operation examples, refer to Page 523.
Operand type Description Data type
Head device number storing the data table [which occupies m1 × m2 points]
16- or 32-bit binary
m1 Number of data (lines) [1 to 32]
m2 Number of group data (columns) [1 to 6]
Head device number storing the operation result [which occupies m1 × m2 points]
n Column number of group data (column) used as the basis of sorting [1 to m2]
