Hi IronMan,

Unfortunately there is no instruction in PCS7 library that I know of...

The easiest way (IMO) is to create an FB in STL and use the DTR instruction. DTR is double-integer to real converter and the real output is in milliseconds.

Here is an example:
[code]

FUNCTION_BLOCK "Time_to_Real"
TITLE =
//Convert Time to Real Seconds

AUTHOR : P75
FAMILY : P75Test
NAME : Time_to_Real
VERSION : 1.0

VAR_INPUT
I_Time : TIME ;//Time Input
END_VAR
VAR_OUTPUT
Q_Time : REAL ;//Real Output in seconds
END_VAR
BEGIN
NETWORK
TITLE =
//Convert Time to Real (seconds)
L #I_Time;
DTR ;
L 1.000000e+003;
/R ;
T #Q_Time;
NETWORK
TITLE =
//Block End
BE ;

END_FUNCTION_BLOCK

[/code]
Regards

 Hello Phantom75,

May you please avail this code in SCL.

Thank you.
