Hi,
I have observed the following when using the SHL operator, below is in simulation
And on hardware (M172PDG18R)
Notice that uiTemp8, uiTemp9 differ. In both simulation and hardware, they are local variables within a program, and they are of UINT type.
I am using EcoStruxure Machine Expert v1.6.0, and the M172PDG18R is using bios version 668.14.
What is going on here?
Thanks.
