%MW
floating point value indicating the sine of an angle
SINEVAL stores a floating point value indicating the sine of an angle between -Pi/2 through +Pi/2 radians.
This value must be in the range of -1.0 through +1.0; if not:
  • The arc sine is not computed.
  • An invalid result is returned.
  • An event is flagged in the L9E_ERLOG DFB.

IN/OUT
RESULT
ARRAY[1...4] OF UINT
%MW
Arc sine in radians of the value in SINEVAL
The arc sine in radians of the floating point value is posted in word 3 and 4.
Word 1 and 2 are not used but allocation is required.
Note: To preserve space, you can make the %MW reference numbers assigned to word 1 and 2 equal to SINEVAL, since word 1 and 2 are not used.
