F160_DSQR

Redundant instruction

NOTE

This is a redundant instruction. It is replaced by: SQRT

The square root of the 32-bit data or constant value specified by s is calculated if the trigger EN is in the ON-state. The result (square root) is stored in d.

Parameters

Input

s (DWORD, DINT, UDINT, DATE, TOD, DT): Source, 32-bit area to be calculated

Output

d (DWORD, DINT, UDINT, DATE, TOD, DT): Square root (decimal places deleted)

Example

(1) Example value 64
(2) Result value 8
(3) 32-bit area
(4) Trigger: ON

Remarks

The figures of the first decimal place and below are disregarded.
If the required data type is supported, we recommend using the IEC instruction SQRT.
The variables s and d have to be of the same data type.
