Can you calculate an Exponential in RSLogix 5000 ?

passwordg · Oct 7, 2011

Have to perform an operation based on the equation:

y = x^0.993

Is it possible for the PLC to compute this ?
CPT instruction doesnt seem to cut it as it doesnt support ^ operator as far as I know ..
Help Please ?

You can use the CPT instruction. The syntax is X**Y to get X^Y.

There is also an EXP function in the math functions.

Ya... I just couldnt find it until you pointed it out.
Same for the x**y notation.
