8.9.4 Arc Sine (ASN)
8-140
8.9.4 Arc Sine (ASN)
(1) Overview
The ASN command uses the specified variable or constant as input and returns the arc sine (unit = degrees) in a
real number register.
(2) Format
* Example: Calculates the arc sine of the input value (0.5): ASN (0.5) = 30.0 degrees.
The ASN command can use only real number data. If bits, integers, or double integers are specified, an error
will result at compilation.
