Working with Floating Point Math Function
Blocks
Floating point math function blocks are created as part of an
application program which may also contain other types of
function blocks. A single application program is made up of as
many as 50 function blocks of any type or combination.
When you installed the Math package, additional software
was added to W
INTERPRET
to allow you to work with floating
point math function blocks. With this additional software you
can create floating point math function blocks by opening a
project, opening a program and opening (or creating) a
function block.

function blocks and how to create them using W
