4ADD Function Block
Description
The 4ADD label stands for Addition Mathematical Operation (4 Inputs).
This block is part of the Math category.
Function
Add FOUR inputs (X, Y1, Y2, and Y3) to get an output.
• OUT = X+ Y1+ Y2 + Y3
Input
X =First Analog Input
Y1 = Second Analog Input
Y2 = Third Analog Input
Y3 = Fourth Analog Input
ATTENTION
All 4 inputs must be connected or unused inputs inverted. If only 3 inputs are used, the 4
th
value should be inverted or connected to a constant value of 1.0.
Output
OUT = Sum of the analog values
