Input Variables
Input variables pass external operands to the instance. The input variables
are displayed on the left side of the instance.
The value of the input source (data contained in the specified parameter just
before the instance was called) will be passed to the input variable.
Example
Note 1. The same name cannot be assigned to an input variable and output vari-
able. If it is necessary to have the same variable as an input variable and
output variable, register the variables with different names and transfer the
value of the input variable to the output variable in the function block with
an instruction such as MOV.
2. When the instance is executed, input values are passed from parameters
to input variables before the algorithm is processed. Consequently, values
cannot be read from parameters to input variables within the algorithm. If
it is necessary to read a value within the execution cycle of the algorithm,
do not pass the value from a parameter. Assign the value to an internal
variable and use an AT setting (specified addresses). Alternatively, refer-
ence the global symbol as external variables.

IN16 is an INT variable, so the content of D100 is used.
IN32 is a DINT variable, so the content of D200 and
D201 is used.
