A function calculates a result according to the current value of its inputs. A function has no internal data and is not linked to declared instances. - Truncates the decimal part of the input.
Inputs
IN : REAL/LREAL Real value
Outputs
Q : REAL/LREAL Result: integer part of IN
Remarks
In FFLD language, the operation is executed only if the input rung (EN) is TRUE. The output rung (ENO) keeps the same value as the input rung.
In IL "Instruction list"
This is a low-level language and resembles assembly, the
input must be loaded in the current result before calling the function.
ST Language
Q := TRUNC (IN);

(* The function is executed only if EN is TRUE *)

Op1: LD "Ladder diagram"
Ladder logic is a method of drawing electrical logic schematics. It is now a very popular graphical language for programming Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). It was originally invented to describe logic made from relays. The name is based on the observation that programs in this language resemble ladders, with two vertical "rails" and a series of horizontal "rungs" between them IN
TRUNC
ST Q (* Q is the integer part of IN *)
