Chapter 6 Applied Instructions Symbol S ： Source device D ： Conversion result Explanation 6_ 1. This instruction converts the Gray code in the device specified by S into the binary value, and stores the conversion result in the device specified by D . 2. Use this instruction to convert the Gray code in the absolute position encoder which is connected to the input terminal of the PLC to the binary value. The conversion result is stored in the specified register. 3. Only the DGBIN instruction can use the 32-counter, but not the device E. 4. The value in the device D must be within the available range. The value in the device D in the 16-bit instruction must be between 0–32,767.
The value in the device D in the 32-bit instruction must be between 0–2,147,483,647. Example When X0.0 is ON, the instruction converts the Gray code in the absolute position encoder which is connected to the inputs X0.0–X0.15 into the binary value, and stores the conversion result in D10. 6-93 API Instruction code Operand Function 0209 D GBIN P S, D Converting a Gray code into a binary number Device X Y M S T C HC D FR SM SR E K 16# “$” F S D BOOL WORD DWORD LWORD UINT INT DINT LINT REAL LREAL TMR CNT STRING Data type S D Pulse instruction 16-bit instruction 32-bit instruction AS AS AS
