C.3.6 Modulus (MOD)

When used in a Ladder Diagram, the MOD block finds the remainder from
dividing one input value by another input value and sends the result to output.

Select the

tool (from the

Math Blocks

toolbar) and click on a ladder rung to

insert the following block:

Once the block is inserted, you can double-click on it to

configure

it.

Functional Description

This block always passes the Enable input state (EN) through to the Enable Out
output state (ENO) without change; when EN becomes on, ENO is turned on, and
when EN becomes off, ENO is turned off.

When EN becomes on, the block function is executed: Input Value 1 (IN1) is
divided by Input Value 2 (IN2) and the remainder is placed in the Output Value
(OUT).

The block function is executed every time the ladder is

scanned

, so long as EN

remains on. If EN becomes off, then OUT remains at its last calculated value until
EN becomes on and the block function is executed again.
