Fixed Position Decimal
Point Workaround If a numeric object in the PanelBuilder 1400e application was
imported into FactoryTalk View software with a fixed position decimal
point, an error is recorded in the conversion log.
Fixed Position Decimal Point input option not supported
As a workaround, use this expression for the Value connection in your
numeric object.
(YourTagHere)/(10 ** (Fixed Position Value))
This expression will let you input a decimal point in a numeric value.
Replace these items in the expression.
•
Replace YourTagHere with a tag having a value you want to
display.
•
Replace Fixed Position Value with the value defined in the Digits
after Decimal Point field of the original PanelBuilder 1400e
graphic object.
(YourTagHere)/(10**(Fixed Position Value)
