Expressions (2)

The parameter page also supports algebraic expressions of ACNET devices.
To enter an expression, the first character typed in should be a pound
sign (#).  Then type in your expression.  Either the reading or setting
property can be specified for a device.  If the second character in the
name is a colon (:), the reading property will be used.  If the second
character is an underscore (_), the setting property will be used.

The operators supported are:

+ -> addition
- -> subtraction
* -> multiplication
/ -> division
^ -> exponentiation
% -> integer modulus


EXAMPLE:

#A:IBEAM/L:D7TOR   <--- note USE of COLON, not semicolon.

The use of parentheses in expressions is fully supported.

The following math functions are also supported:

sqrt	-> square root
ln	-> natural log
log	-> base 10 log
sin	-> sine
cos	-> cosine
tan	-> tangent
