Packs four bytes into a single U32
Category: Conversion
Some input blocks, e.g. RS485 Input, returns data split into bytes. In these situations, the Byte To U32 block is recommended due to the ability to pack the data into a DWORD. Figure 1 shows an example.

Figure 1 - Example Diagram
As can be seen, the number 2221313257 returned by the RS485 Input was split into four bytes. Individually, each byte has a different meaning, but after the packing, their collective arrangement does not shuffle the original content as provided to its inputs.
The Byte To U32 block has four input ports. Each one of them receives a byte of the U32 data. The upper port is responsible for the least significant byte and the lower is responsible for the most significant byte.
Returns the reconstructed signal after the packing.
