Math And Trig Functions Using the CP1E-E/N

Introduction

This article provides a general overview of the attached Getting Started Guide for Math and Trigonometric Functions using the CP1E PLC (MATH_FUNCTIONS_IN_CP1E.pdf). The attached CP1E_Math.cxp CX-Programmer file contains the following eight trigonometric functions that can be used as subroutines as shown in the guide. The CP1E-E and CP1E-N do not include these functions without complex, user-created math algorithms such as those provided here.
 

• Sine Function
• Cosine Function
• Tangent Function
• Arcsine Function
• Arctangent Function
• Square Root Function
• Degree to Radian Conversion
• Radian to -2pi to +2pi Conversion

Overview

The attached document includes details that use the following hardware and software:

• CP1E-E and CP1E-N type CPUs
• CX-Programmer version 5.0 or higher

The attached CX-Programmer file and Getting Started Guide provide details for executing trigonometric functions as well as:

• Step-by-step programming procedure
• Program memory management
• Execution time note
• Accuracy of calculations
• Example
