F8:4 holds the number to be converted. It is divided by 1000 and the result is placed in F8:3.
The value in F8:3 is moved to N7:34, yielding the upper word
(Most Significant Word - MSW).
Rung 3 is used only when the original value in F8:4 is positive. If the value in N7:34 was rounded up, as determined
by comparing it to the floating point version in F8:3, the value must be adjusted by subtracting one from it. The
lower (Least Significant Word) - LSW) is then calculated by subtracting (MSW multiplied by 1000) from the original
value.
Rung 4 is used only when the original value in F8:4 is negative. If the value in N7:34 was rounded up, as determined
by comparing it to the floating point version in F8:3, the value must be adjusted by adding one to it. The lower
(LSW) is then calculated by adding (MSW multiplied by 1000) to the original value.
