I'm getting a alarm 111 maximum number size exceeded error in my macro A programs.
I have 0m-a system and have an 0m-b manual.
the 0m-b manual states the biggest number I can use is +/-2^32.
I took this literally and though the range was +/-4294967296.
that didn't seem right so after a bit of investigation I found 2^32 was a common 32 bit register size and in signed binary the biggest number is half 2^32-1 or +/-2,147,483,647.
between those 2 number was what my machine seemed to be happy with.
now I have a number 383026902 that is less than 2147483647 but I'm getting the alarm 111 error. it isn't displayed since it it over 8 bits but the number should be there as it is displayed as ********.
any suggestions?
