Explanation of function and operation
1. 16-bit operation (RND and RNDP)
This instruction generates a pseudo-random number ranging from 0 to 32767, and stores it as a random number to
.
In the pseudo-random number sequence, the source value of a random number is calculated at every time, and this
instruction calculates a pseudo-random number using the source value.
Pseudo-random number calculation equation:
(D8311, D8310) = (D8311, D8310) *
1
× 1103515245 + 12345.....(1)
= “([D8311, D8310]>>16)&<logical product>00007FFFh”
*1. To (D8311, D8310), write a non-negative value (0 to 2,147,483,647) only once when the PLC mode switches
from STOP to RUN.
[K1 is written to (D8311, D8310) as the initial value when the power is restored.]
Program example
In the program example shown below, a random number is stored to D100 every time X010 turns ON.
When the PLC mode switches from STOP to RUN, the time data converted into seconds and added by the value
“(Year + Month) × Day” is written to D8311 and D8310.
