Chapter 19 ASCII Conversion Instructions (STOD, STOR, DTOS, RTOS, UPPER, LOWER)
Execution:
Example: When send_data is set, the RTOS instruction converts the value in data_1 to a
string of ASCII characters and places the result in data_1_ascii. Subsequent
rungs insert or concatenate data_1_ascii with other strings to produce a complete
message for a display terminal.
You may see a slight difference between the fractional parts of the Source and
Destination.
