Explanation
1. This instruction finds the absolute value of the value in the device specified by D.
2. In general, the ABSP pulse instruction is used.
3. Only the 32-bit instructions can use the 32-bit counter, but not the device E.
4. If the value used here is a smallest negative number for the 16-bit number or 32-bit number, this instruction is not
executed.
Example
Supposedly the value in D0 is originally -1234. When X0.0 switches from OFF to ON, the instruction finds the absolute
value of -1234 in D0. That is, the value in D0 becomes 1234 after the instruction is executed.
