 Bit Logic Instructions in LAD – Positive & Negative Edge
Positive Edge – SCAN Operand
The state of this contact is TRUE when a positive transition
(OFF to-ON) is detected on the assigned bit I0.0.
The bit M0.0 will be ON for 1 clock cycle.

Negative Edge - SCAN Operand

www.codeandcompile.com
negative
The state of this contact is TRUE when a positive transition
(ON to-OFF) is detected on the assigned bit I0.1.
The bit M0.1 will be ON for 1 clock cycle.

The P & N contact can be located anywhere in the network except the end of a branch.

 Bit Logic Instructions in LAD – P_TRIG and N_TRIG
P_TRIG - SCAN RLO
The Q output power flow or logic state is TRUE when a positive
transition (OFF-to-ON) is detected on the CLK power flow in (LAD).

www.codeandcompile.com
P_TRIG Example N_TRIG Example

N_TRIG - SCAN RLO

The Q output power flow or logic state is TRUE when a negative
transition (ON-to-OFF) is detected on the CLK power flow in (LAD).

P_TRIG & N_TRIG instruction cannot be located at the beginning or end of a network
 Exercise Example
Write a Logic to latch the motor when either I0.0 or I0.1 goes from OFF to ON and
unlatch the motor when either I0.2 or I0.3 goes from ON to OFF.

What did we learn in this lesson?

 Positive Edge contact is TRUE when a positive

transition (OFF to-ON) is detected on its operand.
 Negative Edge contact is TRUE when a negative
transition (ON to-OFF) is detected on its
operand.
 P_TRIG contact is TRUE when the instruction
detects a change in the result of logic operation
(RLO) from "0" to "1“

www.codeandcompile.com
 N_TRIG contact is TRUE when the instruction
detects a change in the result of logic operation
(RLO) from “1" to “0"
