LOL, you realized it's for Codesys PLC, not Rockwell source.

I would trust this guy Ron Beaufort: https://www.plctalk.net/qanda/showthread.php?t=59105

Plus, a string contains ASCII code from 0-255., make more sense than -128-127.

Maybe Archie could pitch in his knowledge of SINT type.

Guys,
Thanks for your help. I got everything working that I need to have working.
I can poll all the data I need from one UDT in 30msec. I poll every 300msec with a Timer.

Thanks again.
