UINT_TO_STRING

Unsigned INTEGER into STRING

UINT_TO_STRING converts a value of the data type Unsigned INTEGER into a value of the data type STRING.

Generates a result string in right-aligned decimal representation, filled with leading spaces up to the predefined maximum number of characters.

Parameters

Input

Unnamed input (UINT): Input data type

Output

Unnamed output (STRING): Conversion result

Remarks

The result is not specified when the range of the input values does not match the range of the output values.
When using the data type STRING with small PLCs like FP-e or FP0, make sure that the length of the result string is equal to or greater than the length of the source string.

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
		UINT_value: UINT:=49152;
		STRING_value: STRING[8]:='';
	END_VAR
	VAR
		UINT_value: UINT:=49152;
		STRING_value: STRING[8]:='';
	END_VAR
