Trio Motion Technology
Example:
VR(20) = IEEE_IN(b0,b1,b2,b3)
Note:
Byte 0 is the high byte of the 32 bit floating point format.
IEEE_OUT
Type:
Mathematical Function
Syntax:
byte_n = IEEE_OUT(value, n)
Description:
The IEEE_OUT function returns a single byte in IEEE format extracted from the
floating point value for transmission over a bus sytem. The function will typically
be called 4 times to extract each byte in turn. MC206 and MC224 only.
Parameters:
Example:
byte0 = IEEE_OUT(MPOS AXIS(2), 0)
byte1 = IEEE_OUT(MPOS AXIS(2), 1)
byte2 = IEEE_OUT(MPOS AXIS(2), 2)
byte3 = IEEE_OUT(MPOS AXIS(2), 3)
Note:
Byte 0 is the high byte of the 32 bit IEEE floating point format.
INT
Type:
Mathematical Function
Syntax:
INT(expression)
Description:
The INT function returns the integer part of a number.
Parameters:
Example:
>>PRINT INT(1.79)
1.0000
>>
Note:
To round a positive number to the nearest integer value take the INT function of
the (number + 0.5)
value:
Any TrioBASIC floating point variable or parameter.
n:
The byte number (0 - 3) to be extracted.
expression:
Any valid Trio BASIC expression.
