As required by the STEP 7 projecting software, 32-bit parameter values (for example
overall resolution, limit switches, etc.) are divided into high word and low word.
Example:
The decimal value "1" is entered in the high field, while the decimal value "64,064" is
entered in the low field.
or:
Divide the value by 65,536 and enter the integer portion of the result into the high
word, the remainder portion into the low word:
It is also possible to enter parameters directly as hex values. However, this is
significantly more complicated. If possible, it should be avoided.
Decimal Hexadecimal Hexadecimal Decimal (input)
129,600 00 01 FA 40 high word 0001 1
low word FA 40 64,064
129,600/65,536 = 1,977539 → integer portion = 1 → high word:1
129,600 – 1 x 65,536 = 64,064 → remainder = 64,064 → low word = 64,064
