converting decimal string to a number

[Carvalho10]

I have the same doubt, what should I do in my program, is giving the same error. Could you help me please.

Doubt??  Or a question.

Post your VI so we can see what you are doing.

My VI is attached. The following image are the values that are not rounded.

What indicators are giving you problems and what "error" are you talking about.

It looks like your system is set to "comma" as decimal separator, while the received strings contain periods, which are not recognized and the fractional part is ignored. Maybe you should change the decimal point settings.

It also looks like most of your indicators are set for 6 significant digits. If you want more, you need to change the display format.

You also have several race conditions. For example the local variable wired to pitch, roll, and yaw will get read before the indicator gets updated with the new value.

Thank already made these changes but did not work. Data is still coming integers. Should I change the icon? Another question Lord knows an icon that can save data to a string that is passed to the VI?

Change what icon?

If it still doesn't work, then you need to post your VI.  I'm guessing that you didn't implement change from decimal point to a comma correctly.  Did you wire a False constant into the top of the Fract/Exp String to Number function?

Try using the Scan Value function instead.  Look closely at the help files for the syntax of the format string for the conversion.  There is generally a code such as .; which will force the conversion to pay attention to the string containing decimal points no matter what the OS tries to say the decimal separator is.

Actually Scan From String is the function I would use.

I just couldn't remember the exact name of it and found Scan Value in the palettes first.

I talked about changing the icon because the data are integers or round leaving this icon: Fract / EXP string to number. The previous icon appears the correct value. I do not know what else to do. My VI is attached. thank

Then change it to the recommended function if you don't want to change the system setting. To repeat - use Scan From String.

Did you try wiring a False constant into the top of the functions you are using now?  Like I said in message 16?
