converting string to double integer

[DrBrule 0]

Hey everyone first post on here,

does anyone know if it is possible to convert a string into a double integer. i am working with a dimensioner and it is sending me its box dimensions in a 12 char string (see attached picture). however i need this data as a double integer (it seems to just take the string length not the string value i have tried both dim_lengh and dim_length.data[0]). i have gotten it down to the point where i have the string split up into the dimensions i need but i dont know how to do the conversion. (box dims for reference are 21 X 15 X 14.8)

Thanks in advance,

Dr. Brule

You want the STOD instruction.  String_To_DINT
