The result of dividing the first input
value by the second input value.
NOTE: This function does not check for bit register overflow. You can assign any
variables you wish, but mixing variable sizes – for example, a 32-bit input and an
8-bit output – may result in unusable output.
NOTE: This function cannot perform division by zero. Floating point division by
zero generates an overflow condition. Integer division by zero causes an
exception and shuts down the application.
C.3.4 Multiply (MUL)
When used in a Ladder Diagram, the MUL block multiplies two inputs and sends
the result to output.
Select the
tool (from the Math Blocks toolbar) and click on a ladder rung to
insert the following block:
Once the block is inserted, you can double-click on it to configure it.
Functional Description
This block always passes the Enable input state (EN) through to the Enable Out
output state (ENO) without change; when EN becomes on, ENO is turned on, and
when EN becomes off, ENO is turned off.
When EN becomes on, the block function is executed: the Input Value 1 (IN1) is
multiplied by the Input Value 2 (IN2) and the result is placed in the Output Value
(OUT).
