Square root operation for floating-point data (single precision)

• Basic model QCPU: The serial number (first five digits) is "04122" or later.

(S): Data of which the square root is obtained or head number of the devices where the data is stored (real number)

(D): Head number of the devices where the operation result will be stored (real number)

Internal device

*1 Applicable for the Universal model QCPU, LCPU.

Processing details

• Returns the square root of the value designated at (S), and stores the operation result in the device number designated at

32-bit floating-point

• Only positive values can be specified by (S). (Operation cannot be performed on negative numbers.)

• When an input value is set using a programming tool, a rounding error may occur. For precautions, refer to Page 89

Precautions.

Operation error

• In any of the following cases, an operation error occurs, the error flag (SM0) turns ON, and an error code is stored into SD0.

Error details

The value specified in (S) is negative.

The specified device value is -0.

The specified device value is not within the following range:

 | Specified device value | <2

The specified device value is -0, unnormalized number, nonnumeric, and .

The operation result exceeds the following range.

(when an overflow occurs)

|Operation result| < 2

*2 There are CPU modules that will not result in an operation error if -0 is specified. For details, refer to Page 87 Using single/double-

precision real number data.
