APPENDICES
BCD (Binary Coded Decimal)
1) This is the abbreviation for "binary coded
decimal", more accurately called a BCD
code. Computers, PLCs, etc., use binary
numbers made up of 1 (ON) and 0 (OFF).
Because this is difficult for humans to
understand, decimal digits are expressed
by a pattern of binary digits. Many of the
digital switches and digital displays used by
humans use a BCD code. The significance
of the bits is shown in the drawing below.
Numbers from 0 to 9,999 can be handled
by 16 bits, and numbers from 0 to
99,999,999 can be handled by 32 bits.

2) BCD commands are commands in which a
binary number (BIN) is converted to a
binary coded decimal (BCD).
They are used to output data from the PLC
and display it on the digital display.

example.

BIAS SPEED AT START
A large amount of torque is required when the
machine starts moving, but the torque may be
unstable at speed 0 with stepping motors.
Therefore, movement can be smoothly carried
out by starting the movement at a given speed
from the beginning. The bias speed at start is
the speed set at that start.

BIN (Binary)
1) A binary number, more accurately called a
binary code.
All values are expressed as a binary
number in which 1 turns the PLC, etc.,
electricity ON, and 0 turns it OFF. The
significance of the bits is shown in the
drawing below. In the MELSEC PLC, the
highest order bit (B15) is used to indicate
handling as a positive No. (0), or negative
No. (1), so the 15 bits from B0 to B14 are
valid.

2) BIN commands are commands in which a
binary coded decimal (BCD) is converted to
a binary number (BIN).
They are used to input the data shown on
the digital switch to the PLC.
