REAL_TO_TIME

REAL into TIME

REAL_TO_TIME converts a value of the data type REAL into a value of the data type TIME. 10ms of the data type TIME correspond to 1.0 REAL unit, e.g. when REAL = 1.0, TIME = 10ms; when REAL = 100.0, TIME = 1s. The value of the data type real is rounded off to the nearest whole number for the conversion.

Parameters

Input

Unnamed input (REAL): Input data type

Output

Unnamed output (TIME): Conversion result

Example

POU header

All input and output variables used for programming this function have been declared in the POU header. The same POU header is used for all programming languages.

	VAR
		result_time: TIME:=T#0s;
	END_VAR

POU body

By clicking on the monitor icon while in the online mode, you can see the result 0.00ms immediately. Since the value at the REAL input contact is less than 0.5, it is rounded down to 0.0.
