While using the same instance, everything seemed to be functioning correctly until I had a sudden realization that it might be incorrect. For instance, in the code snippet provided as an example, the function realToWords is called with the parameter REAL_TO_WORD2. Here is how it is used: ``` realToWords(rInput:=temperaturePumpKelvin, xSwapBytes:=FALSE, wOutput1=> hmiOutput.temperaturePumpWordTwo, wOutput2=> hmiOutput.temperaturePumpWordOne); realToWords(rInput:=temperatureBoxRead, xSwapBytes:=FALSE, wOutput1=> hmiOutput.temperatureBoxWordTwo, wOutput2=> hmiOutput.temperatureBoxWordOne); ``` Furthermore, there are approximately 10 other instances where this same function is called within the codebase.
Hello Edvard, the functionality of this may vary depending on how it is implemented. It is recommended to use separate instances when working with static variables in Function Blocks to avoid interference. If the values, like conversion coefficients, remain constant, using only one instance should be sufficient. However, if you need to change static variable values within the block, using multiple instances is advised to prevent unintentional changes to multiple outputs.
Edvard, I'm intrigued as to where you discovered the theta library. I searched for "OCL.REAL_TO_WORD2" but only found a document in Russian describing blocks. Can you share the source of this library for further exploration?
It appears like you're working on a project that converts realtime data into words. From the provided code snippets, the function `realToWords` takes three arguments: `rInput`, `wOutput1`, and `wOutput2`, with `xSwapBytes` set to `FALSE` as optional. Your question seems intact, but kind of vague. Are you implying that there might be an error or inefficiency in the usage of the function across instances, or is there a specific issue you're encountering? It would also be helpful if you clarified what you expect the function to output and what it is currently outputting. Providing these details can help the community to better assist you.
From the code excerpt you've shared, it looks like the realToWords function is repeatedly used to convert real numbers to words in separate instances. If you believe there might be an incorrect usage, it would be beneficial to understand what the function does exactly and its expected inputs and outputs. That way, you can verify if the current parameters being passed are indeed appropriate. If the function is being reused multiple times throughout your codebase, it might be indicative of a good use case for a helper function or class method, depending on your project's structure. This could simplify the code and perhaps prevent incorrect usage in the future.

Answer: - The realToWords function in Codesys is used to convert a real number into two integer words.
Answer: - The xSwapBytes parameter being set to FALSE indicates that byte swapping is not performed during the conversion process.
Answer: - The function realToWords can handle multiple conversions in the same cycle by providing different input real numbers and output word variables for each conversion call, as demonstrated in the code snippet.
Answer: - If the same instance of realToWords is called multiple times within the codebase, each call will perform a separate conversion with its specified input and output variables without interfering with the other calls.
