Hello! I am trying to convert AS4 project to AS6. I realized that there is no LoopCont - LCLiScUINT() function block existing in AS6. I am doing a scaling or linearization of analog integer values from sensors. Is there some replacement for it? Thank you! LCLiScUINT()

Hi, since this topic has come up a view times I would like to share some official note to this issue. The note in the help file exists since AS4 and does not mean that the LoopConR is discontinued in AS6. It is just a reminder that there is a more up to date mechatronics library. There is no plan t…

Thank Marcus, but I think that I cannot find same functionality in MTBasics. But just to mention I am rookie at programming. :wink:

Hi Andrej, depending on what you trying to do here are some options you should take a look at. MTBasicsLimiter MTHydValveLinearization LCRLimScal()

Thank you @marcel.voigt . LCRLimScal() will do the job. I just need to convert INT to REAL beforehand. Thank you again!

Hi @Kolma a heads up: when searching for the FUB you might not come across the landing page of the library that contains it: B&R Online Help → “This libary is replaced by the Mechatronics libraries.” I recommend to not use that specific FUB so you won’t have to do it all over again once the FUB …

Hi @michael_w Which FUB should I use as a replacement for LCRLimScal()? Thank you

Hi there, unfortunately it looks like this FUB has no successor. Maybe if I have some more time I can whip up a small method, but this should only be a small method to implement on your own - that would be the most future-proof way I guess Best regards

Hi @michael_w No worries, I can implement it myself. But thank you anyway :slight_smile: I’m just a bit annoyed, that there is no replacement in the successor library. And according to the linked post , I’m not the only one. Best regards

So, LoopConR is supported under AS6 but LoopCont is not? We have a library which uses LoopCont extensively. Replacing all those functions and function blocks is really tedious…

Hi Andrej,

Please take a look at Marcel’s answer on an earlier post for some suggestions.
