Floating Points Very Limited
Hi All,
I'm a new person in PLC working on a program which involves lots of floating point maths.. Seeing the available registers for floating points, it is very few and i don't think i can complete my program.. I'm using Micrologix 1400.. Is there anyone who can help me out with this.. Can i add more floats? Thanks in advance.. |

How many do you need? Each data file can have 256 elements (registers). If you need more then create a new data file e.g. F9:?? and make it 256 more registers. You are only limited by memory in your processor. See picture below.
You can only increase or create data files in program mode.
