32-bit floating-point real
number
Only positive values can be designated by (S). (Operation cannot be performed with negative numbers.)
When setting input values from programming tools, rounding errors may occur.
For precautions when setting input values from programming tools, refer to "6.3.4 Single/Double-Precision Real Number
Data".
Operation errors
In the following cases, an arithmetic error occurs, the error flag (SM0) turns ON, and an error code is stored at SD0.
- The value designated by (S) is a negative number. (Error code: 34)
- The value designated by (S) is "0". (Error code: 34)
- The designated device value is not within the following range. (Error code: 35)

0, 2
≤ | Designated device value | < 2
- The designated device value is "-0", unnormalized number, nonnumeric, or ± ∞ . (Error code: 35)
- The operation result exceeds the following range. (When an overflow occurs) (Error code: 36)
| Operation result | < 2
