INT_TO_BCD_WORD
INT_TO_BCD_WORD converts a binary value of the data type INT into a binary coded decimal
Description
integer (BCD) value of the type WORD in order to be able to output BCD values in word format.
To add an enable input and enable output to the instruction, select [With EN/ENO] from the
"Instructions" pane (LD, FBD or IL editor). To reuse an instruction select "Recently used" from the
context menu or press <Ctrl>+<Shift>+<v> in the programming window.
