For details, refer to Chapter 2 “1.2 Available Data” on page 2-2.
Digits: Specifies the digits to display. The range of digits that can be set varies based on the
display type and data type. The digits that can be set are as follows.
Display Type Data Type Digits
Decimal display
BIN16 (+), BIN16 (+/-) 1 to 5
BIN32 (+), BIN32 (+/-) 1 to 10
BCD4 1 to 4
BCD8 1 to 8
float32 1 to 10
Hexadecimal
display
BIN16 (+) 1 to 4
BIN32 (+) 1 to 8
Display Floating Point: Select this check box to display the decimal point.
If Data Type is BIN16(+) , BIN16(+/-) , BIN32(+) , BIN32(+/-) , BCD4 , or BCD8 and the Display
Floating Point check box is selected, a decimal value will be displayed on the Numerical Input when a
decimal value is entered on the keypad in entry mode, but an integer is written to the device. In display
mode, source data is an integer, but the value is displayed with a decimal point added at the number of
floating digits configured for the Numerical Input.
However, if
float32 is selected for Data Type , both the destination data and the source data are decimal
values.
Example: When
Display Type is configured as Decimal, Data Type is BIN16(+) , the Display Floating
