The ranges that can be set for each item depend on the selected storage type. Refer to Numeral
Display and Storage Type (General Tab) in 2-8 Common Functions of Functional Objects.
♦
When referencing the border indirectly, specify a value in the same type as the storage type set on
the General Tab Page.
For example, if REAL (real number) is specified on the General Tab Page, set the border as a real
number.
