FB_ScaleOutput - Scaling Analog IO
Function Block - Converts un-scaled LREAL values from a PLC program into units of type DINT.
Inputs

Description |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
InputSignal |
LREAL |
0 to 4 |
N/A |
No default |
Un-scaled input signal. |
InputMin |
LREAL |
0 to 4 |
N/A |
No default |
Minimum value of accepted input signal range. |
InputMax |
LREAL |
0 to 4 |
N/A |
No default |
Maximum value of accepted input signal range. |
OutputMin |
DINT |
0 to 4 |
N/A |
No default |
Output value mapped to the InputMin. |
OutputMax |
DINT |
0 to 4 |
N/A |
No default |
Output value mapped to the InputMax. |

Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
OutputSignal |
DINT |
|
N/A |
Scaled value of the Input Signal with type converted to DINT. Stays within specified Min/Max output values. |
OutsideRange |
BOOL |
FALSE, TRUE |
N/A |
TRUE if the InputSignal is outside the range setup by min/max values, otherwise FALSE. |
Remarks
- The scale LREAL to DINT can be mapped to an analog output.
- The input signal is converted based on a linear mapping automatically calculated by two points entered.
- InputMin is mapped to OutputMin, InputMax is mapped to OutputMax, and all values in between are scaled automatically.
- If an input value is not between the selected Min/Max, the Boolean output OutsideRange turns TRUE.
- The OutputSignal is set to the corresponding OutputMin or OutputMax value.
