III-5.1 AOCTET (data type conversion (No. 02))
Function AOCTET converts an analog value (X1) into the individual bytes (Ooct1-4) of a data type as used e.g. for trans -
mission via the CAN bus ( see CPREAD / CPWRIT ). In the CAN notation, the bytes are transmitted in Intel format. Un -
less connected instruments are in compliance with this notation, word or bytewise echange of the bytes may be
necessary.
The function works in both directions simultaneously ( analog > bytes / bytes > analog ) with separate data type adjust -
ment in the parameters.
Analog inputs:
X1 analog input value
Ioct1..4 analog input byte value 1
Analog outputs:
Y 1 analog output value
Ioct1..4 analog output byte value 1
Parameters:
Parameter Description Value range Default
Ioct data type of analog > byte conversion 0...999 999 [s] 0
Ooct data type of byte > analog conversion
The following data types are available
0 1 2 3 4 5 6
Uint8 Int8 Uint16 Int16 Uint32 Int32 Float
