Hi,

 

I have a Vision V1210 Controller that is supposed to read float values from pH meter over RS485 MODBUS RTU. All the communication is fine, using "Read Float Registers" FB the float value is stored in two consecutive MI registers (MI0 and MI1). I can see that retrieved value is 32bit float ordered big-endian (I believe that's IEEE 754) and I was wondering if there is some way to display it on screen?

 

One way would be converting it to some integer representation so I can easily put it in a numeric box and use 1.2 decimal format (pH values should be in range 5.00-9.00), but I haven't found any ladder element for such conversion. Am I missing something obvious?

 

It's worth mentioning that I don't need to do any calculations on these floats, just display them on screen.

 

Thanks
