Block that performs the conversion of a BYTE value into a REAL value.

Ladder Representation

Block Structure

Variable Type	Name	Data Type	Description
VAR_INPUT	EN	BOOL	Block enabling
VAR_INPUT	Value	BYTE USINT SINT	Value in BYTE
VAR_OUTPUT	ENO	BOOL	End of operation
VAR_OUTPUT	Result	REAL	Value in REAL

Operation

When this block has a TRUE value in EN, it interprets the Value value as BYTE and converts it into REAL, storing in Result.

When EN has FALSE value, Result remains unchanged.

The ENO value forwards to the next Ladder block the EN value after the operation is completed.

Example in Ladder

BYTE_TO_REAL_example01

BYTE_TO_REAL_example02

The examples above perform the conversion of variable VALUE, in BYTE, into a REAL value storing the final result in RESULT. The block ends with success and ENO output is activated.

Example in ST

The example below displays the instructions for applying the example above in the ST language.

VAR

VALUE : SINT := -50;

RESULT : REAL;

END_VAR

RESULT := FB_BYTE_TO_REAL(EN:=DI1, Value:=VALUE, ENO=>DO1);
