Index conversion definitions are used to send floating-point number data stored as integers in control registers as a decimal-
point format ASCII string by an SECS message.
Usage method
■Adding a conversion table
Configure the index conversion settings at the "Conversion Table Setting" screen. (Page 144 Conversion Table Setting,
Page 145 Conversion table setting)
When adding a table, select "Index", and then configure "Index" and "Number of digits of integer section" to the number of
decimal places and number of digits of the integer section, respectively.
■Specifying index conversion
Specify a table added at the "Conversion Table List" screen by "Data Type" of the control register at the "Item Information"
screen. ( Page 68 Item information)
Indexes can also be converted using the format conversion function.
The same functions as index conversion can be used by the format of format conversion.
If the example above is listed by the format of format conversion, the result is "%9.2f".
The total number of characters including the decimal point is "9", and the number of decimal places is "2".
