ANY_TO_REALPLCopen motion icon

Operator - Converts the input into real value.

Inputs

IN : ANY  Input value

Outputs

Q : REAL  Value converted to real

Remarks

For BOOL input data types, the output is 0.0 or 1.0. For DINT input data type, the output is the same number. For TIME input data types, the result is the number of milliseconds. For STRING inputs, the output is the number represented by the string, or 0.0 if the string does not represent a valid number. In FFLD language, the conversion is executed only if the input rung (EN) is TRUE. The output rung (ENO) keeps the same value as the input rung. In ILClosed "Instruction list" This is a low-level language and resembles assembly Language, the ANY_TO_REAL function converts the current result.
