Extended instructions
8.2 String and character
The value represented by parameter IN is converted to a string referenced by parameter
OUT. The parameter OUT must be a valid string before the conversion is executed.
The converted string will replace characters in the OUT string starting at character offset
count P to the number of characters specified by parameter SIZE. The number of characters
in SIZE must fit within the OUT string length, counting from character position P. This
instruction is useful for embedding number characters into a text string. For example, you
can put the numbers "120" into the string "Pump pressure = 120 psi".
Parameter PREC specifies the precision or number of digits for the fractional part of the
string. If the parameter IN value is an integer, then PREC specifies the location of the
decimal point. For example, if the data value is 123 and PREC = 1, then the result is "12.3".
The maximum supported precision for the Real data type is 7 digits.
If parameter P is greater than the current size of the OUT string, then spaces are added, up
to position P, and the result is appended to the end of the string. The conversion ends if the
maximum OUT string length is reached.
The FORMAT parameter for the VAL_STRG instruction is defined below. The unused bit
positions must be set to zero.
