Compare number values
The compare instructions can compare two number values with the same data type. You can
compare bytes, integers, double integers, and real numbers.
For
LAD and FBD
: When the comparison is TRUE, the compare instruction sets ON a
contact (LAD network power flow), or output (FBD logic flow).
For
STL
: When the comparison is TRUE, the compare instructions can load, AND, or OR a 1
with the value on the top of the logic stack.
Types of comparison
Six comparison types are available:
