5.5.5 Format
5.5.5.1 Only Positive
Use the attribute Only Positive to display variable values that are to be
displayed without a sign. This means that the range of values that can
be displayed changes, for example, for a byte, from between -128 and
+127 to between 0 and 255.
You can also display positive decimal numbers with leading zeros.
5.5.5.2 Display Leading Zeros
For positive decimal numbers, you can display more significant digits
with a value of zero as zeros.
For example: If the field length is 5 digits, the number 25 is displayed with leading
zeros as follows:
00025
5.5.5.3 Field Length
The field length of a variable is made up of:
– The sign
– The number of digits
– The decimal point
For the representation type Binary Number, the number of blank
spaces is added to the number of digits, to determine the field length.
5.5.5.4 Fractional Digits
You can define the number of fractional digits for decimal and floating
point numbers.
This does not change the field length, however, one digit for displaying
the decimal point is lost.
5.5.6 Documentation Value
The documentation value for displaying a variable is a placeholder
when you program. Depending on the representation type you are
using, The programming software specifies another documentation
value, for example, 'F' for hexadecimal numbers or '9' for decimal num-
bers.
