Chapter 6 Applied Instructions API 1210 Symbol: D ： Device involved in the getting of the absolute value Word/Double word 1. When the instruction ABS is executed, the absolute value of the value in the device specified by D is gotten. 2. Generally, the pulse instruction ABSP is used. 3. Only the 32-bit instructions can use the 32-bit counter. Explanation: Example: Suppose the value in D0 before the execution of the instruction is -1234. When X0.0 is switched from OFF to ON, the absolute value of -1234 in D0 is gotten. That is, the value in D0 becomes 1234 after the instruction is executed.
