Description

Function description

This function block serves as the control of a numerical output, which can be switched off via the function block PWM1 controlled analog output, server motor or controlling element. The control can appear via server dialog or direct via the PLC software.

In general a control function block is used to control a digital output. The MS block should then be used, if the control output should be uncoupled from the control of the analog output.

and can be configured as additional parameters.

Application possibilities

The function block will mainly be used with the following applications:

For the control of an analog output, which is not controlled via a servo loop (open loop).
Servo loops, with which the control output and the user controlled output have inserted a processing operation.
For scanning of the output controlled controller, if the scanning period exceeds 1 to 2 seconds.
For control of a server motor: the function block MS is in this case the controller block in order to insert the server motor.

REAL

The REAL type is encoded in a 32 bit format.

The possible value ranges are shown in the figure below:

When a result is:

between -1,175494e-38 and 1,175494e-38, it is considered to be a DEN;
less than -3.402824e+38, the symbol -INF (for - infinity) is displayed;
greater than +3.402824e+38, the symbol INF (for + infinity) is displayed;
undefined (square root of a negative number), the symbolNAN is displayed.

NOTE: The IEC 559 standard defines two classes of NAN: the silent NAN (QNAN) and the signaling NAN (SNAN). A QNAN is a NAN with a most significant fraction bit while an SNAN is a NAN without a most significant fraction bit (bit number 22). QNANs can be propagated via most arithmetic operations without throwing an exception. As for SNANs, they generally indicate n invalid operation when they are used as operands in arithmetic operations (see %SW17 and %S18).

NOTE: When a DEN (non-standardized number) is used as an operand, the result is not significant.
