Function Set Item Description
I Input pin for addition function block
FB
This function block operates the expression Y=A+B.
The value of Y,A and B is in the range: -32768 to 32767
a) A,B
- Constant value (Setting range:-32768 to 32767
- Analog value
- FB value
Output
1) Word Output
When the input pin is ON, Y=A+B is executed and the word output
will be given the result. When the input pin is OFF the expression is
not executed and the Y value will retain the last result.
2) Bit Output
- Operation result Y<32768: Output pin turned ON and the operation
result Y will be set to -32767
- Operation result Y>32767: Output pin turned ON and the operation
result Y will be set to 32767
