I currently have a job were I have to keep track of measured parts during a eight hour shift. We are currently using a A/B 5/04 and using a floating point instruction to determine whether the parts are good or bad.
My question is how would I keep track of each part size in the PLC during a eight hour shift that produces 1000 plus parts per shift . I thought of using FFL and FFU instructions but I Believe they only accept interger instructions. The numbers I get range from 58.08084 to 56.04578 and if I would choose to use a interger file and multiply 58.08084 by 10,000 I would get 5808084 and thats beyond the the intergers file setpoints.(-32768 to 32767)
