Requires: Base Development System. This topic might not match its corresponding palette in LabVIEW depending on your operating system, licensed product(s), and target.

Use the Fixed-Point functions to manipulate the overflow status of a fixed-point number.

Palette ObjectDescription
Clear Fixed-Point Overflow StatusClears the overflow status of FXP by changing the overflow status of FXP to FALSE.
Fixed-Point to Integer CastScales the fixed-point input to produce an integer output. This function is the equivalent of an arithmetic shift of the input, constrained so that the least significant bit of the input becomes the least significant bit of the output.
Include Fixed-Point Overflow StatusIncludes an overflow status with FXP. The value of the overflow status equals the value specified in overflow.
Integer to Fixed-Point CastScales the integer input to produce an output with the requested fixed-point type. This function is the equivalent of an arithmetic shift of the input with configurable overflow handling, constrained so that the least significant bit of the input becomes the least significant bit of the output.

Remove Fixed-Point Overflow StatusRemoves the overflow status from FXP.
