Instruction
Description
Arc Tangent
ATN
(Enhanced, Ethernet, and
ControlNet PLC-5 processors
only)
When the input conditions are true, take the arc tangent of the Source (F8:21) and store the
result in the Destination (F8:22). The Source is interpreted as radians.

Status Bits:
EN-Enable
DN-Done Bit
ER-Error Bit
When the input conditions go from false-to-true, add N7:1, N7:2, N7:3, and N7:4. Divide the
sum by 4 and store the result in N7:0.
