I've decided, having some extra time on my hands, to learn some more about some of the AB instructions that I do not use often. Some of these instructions might benefit me greatly in my programming, but are unknown to me. Primarily because my SLC manual lacks clear examples of how to use some of them or because I havent had adequate education to understand them.
Anyway, I am just starting at the front of the manual and going through it, if I find a instruction that I do not understand I will post it here and hopefully someone could help me. My hope is that one of you could give me an explanation and possibly a simple example of the use, and in what type of industry/equipment it might be used in.
I am sure that there are more people out there that would like to learn how some of these instructions work. Most of these instructions are the same for all brands, just called something different, so it should help people even if they do not use AB.
So here is my first one SQR (Square Root)
This instuction calculates the square root of source A and places the result in the destination. What reason would one have to know the square root of a number in a plc?
Thanks for your time.
