This instruction can only be used in the Expression parameter of the Calculate Expression (MATH) instruction.
The Minimum Value Across a Range of Values (MINR) instruction determines the minimum value in the specified range of variable locations. This function has two parameters as follows:
The
first parameter designates the
first location in the range of values. This can be any readable bit data-block
location or readable numeric data-block location. The second
parameter specifies the number of successive locations that are
in the range. Note that this value is a count value, it does NOT specify
the ending location. This can be any constant value from 1 to 65535, or,
any regular math expression - for example (D3 - D1), or any readable numeric
location. |

Note: If the second parameter (Range) is 0, the result will be set to -2147483647 and ST132 (Argument Out of Range) will be ON.
Note: If the second parameter (Range) exceeds the size of the data block, the result will be the minimum value in the range up to the last variable in the block and ST132 (Argument Out of Range) will be ON. For example, assume the block of WX locations has a range of WX0 to WX255. The result of MINR(WX250, 10) would be the minimum value in the range of WX250 through WX255, and ST132 (Argument Out of Range) will be ON.
