When using Parameter expression to Set High Scale value under the scaling tab of the Analog Status tags it slightly alters the value from the PLC's Tag value. The actual value is 16.4 and is just a stored REAL value not a calculated one.

Also I have to perform a mathematically pointless calculation to get the widgets to use "Tag scaling values"

Kind of weird, but 16.4 as a float is 16.3999996185302734375 without other errors.

Yeah, I'm a bit distrubed by the scaling error.

Mel -

Can you send me a changeset, please?

These issues are caused by the limitations of the IEEE-754 floating point formats and not all numbers can be accurately represented with this format.

See an example calculator here, this shows that 16.4 cannot be accurately represented using a double.

As you might have guessed, VTScada uses IEEE-754 doubles internally to hold values.
