Hi,
I want to send a floating point value from a plc to my robot over an profibus connection.
Is it possible to use an analog input for this? if so, what value should i use in the min/max bitvalue when configuring the input?.

Problem solved. Just had to multiply the floating point value with 10 and then convert to integer (plc).

Set it up as an analog input, you will have to mess around with the scaling to make it suit your needs.Lee Justice1
