Due to the software tool STEP7 32-bit parameter values (e.g. total measuring range, software limit
switches) have to be divided into high and low word.
Example:
Decimal
Hexadecimal Hexadecimal Decimal (to be entered)
129600 00 01 FA 40 High word 00 01 1
Low word FA 40 64064
The decimal value „1“ has to be entered into the high word parameter field, the value 64064 into
the low word parameter field.
Or:
Divide the value by 65536; enter the integer part of the result into the high word parameter field,
the remainder into the low word field.
129600 / 65536 = 1.977539
integer part = 1 high word = 1
129600 – 1 x 65536 = 64064 remainder = 64064 low word = 64064
It is also possible to enter the parameters directly as hexadecimal code. However this is very
complicated and it should be avoided if possible.
