S: This function is supported only in FX3U/FX3UC PLCs.
Explanation of function and operation
1. 16-bit operation (GBIN and GBINP)
- This instruction can be used for detecting an absolute position by a gray code type encoder.
- can store a value from 0 to 32,767.
2. 32-bit operation (DGBIN and DGBINP)
- A gray code can be converted into a binary value of up to 32 bits.
- can store a value from 0 to 2,147,483,647.
Caution
When an input relay (X) is specified as , the response relay will be “Scan time of PLC + Input filter constant”.
The input filter value in X000 to X017
*1
can be converted using the REFF (FNC51) instruction or D8020 (filter
adjustment) so that the delay caused by the filter constant is eliminated.
*1. X000 to X007 in FX
3G PLCs
