Hi, I downloaded the Node-Red-contrib bit paddle to split a word into 16 individual outputs, is there a paddle with 16 inputs and a single word output? Thank you

The buffer parser node in node-red-contrib-buffer-parser can take your bits and generate a buffer. This can then be fed into a buff-er parser node and that can generate a UINT/WORD
NOTE: Node-RED does not support multiple inputs (nodes can NOT have multiple input pins)
To achieve what you need, your `msg` (typically `msg.payload`) must contain the necessary bit info
