How do I get Floating-Point values in a PLC5 or SLC processor from the Modbus module?
To view the floating-point value, the two 16-bit integers must be copied to a floating-point variable in the processor. For PLC and SLC processor, a COP command is used, with the source being the first integer value location, the dest being the F file location, and the len being ...

Since RSLogix uses signed integers, the highest positive value that can be entered is 32767. To avoid this issue, when specifying higher baud rates, Prosoftmodules only require the first 3 digits of the baud rate. e.g., to enter a baud rate of 38400, enter 384. Use 576 for 5...
