18 Floating Point – FNC110 to FNC139
18.4 FNC116 – ESTR / Floating Point to Character String Conversion
• The number of digits of the decimal part which can be specified by
+2 is from 0 to 7.
However, make sure to achieve "Number of digits of decimal part
≤
(Total number of digits - 7)"
For example, when the total number of digits is "12", the number of digits of the decimal part is "4", and "-
12.3456" s specified, data is stored in
and later as shown below:
• The character string data after conversion is stored in the devices
and later as shown below:
- As the sign of the integer part, "20H (space)" is stored when the binary floating point data is positive,
and "2DH (-)" is stored when the data is negative.
- The integer part is fixed to 1 digit.
"20H (space)" is stored between the integer part and the sign.
- If the decimal part of the binary floating point data cannot be accommodated in the number of digits of
the decimal part, low-order digits of the decimal part are rounded.
- When the number of digits of the decimal part is set to any value other than "0", "2EH (.)" is
automatically stored in "specified number of digits of decimal part + 1"th digit.
When the number of digits of the decimal part is "0", "2EH (.)" is not stored.
- As the sign of the exponent part, "2BH (+)" is stored when the exponent is positive, and "2DH (-)" is
stored when the exponent is negative.
