F286_DLIMT
The function compares the input value at input s3_In with a lower and an upper limit. The lower
Description
limit is specified at input s1_Min, and the upper limit at input s2_Max. The result of the function is
returned at output d as follows:
If the input value at s3_In < s1_Min, the lower limit at input s1_Min is returned at

output d.
 If the input value at s3_In > s2_Max, the upper limit at input s2_Max is returned
at output d.
 If the input value at s2_Max  s3_In  s1_Min, the input value s3_In is returned
unchanged at output d.
If you want to control the output value solely via the upper value s2_Max, set -2147483648 or
16#80000000 for the lower limit s1_Min. To perform lower limit control only, set 2147483647 or
16#7FFFFFFF the upper limit s2_Max.
Lower limit s1
This instruction also exists as a P instruction (for FP2/2SH, FP3/5, FP10/10SH PLC types), which
is only executed at the rising edge of the EN trigger. Select [Insert P instruction] from the
"Instructions" pane if you require a P instruction. To facilitate reuse, the instruction then appears
under "Recently used" in the pop-up menu. Press <Ctrl>+<Shift>+<v> within the programming
area to open the list of recently used elements.
