4.2.7 Logical NOT
When the Logical Not or Logical Invert (NOT) function receives power flow, it sets the state of each
bit in the output bit string Q to the opposite of the state of the corresponding bit in bit string IN1.
All bits are altered on each scan that power is received, making output string Q the logical
complement of input string IN1. Logical NOT passes power flow to the right whenever it receives
power. You can specify a string length of 1 to 256 WORDs or DWORDs
Operands for Logical NOT
The number of WORDs or DWORDs in
the bit string to NOT. 1 Length
256.
The first WORD or DWORD of the
input string to NOT.
Q (Must be the same data
type as IN1)
The first WORD or DWORD of the
NOT's result.
All except constants and
variables located in %S memory
Example
When input V_I0001 is set, the bit string represented by the variable A is negated. Logical NOT stores
the resulting inverse bit string in variable B. Variable A retains its original bit string value.
