Block type: wrapToZero
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| input ports | 1 input port(s) declared. |
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| output ports | 1 output port(s) declared. |
Outputs 0 when the input reaches Threshold, else passes it through.
| Module | nflow_blocks |
| Library | Math |
| Type | wrapToZero |
| Label | Wrap To Zero |
Description
Outputs 0 when the input is at or above Threshold, else passes the input through unchanged (Wrap To Zero). Pure algebraic feedthrough, element-wise over the input width.

| Port_1 | Numeric signal read by the block. | left | x=0, y=40 |
Output(s)
| Port | Role | Side | Position |
|---|---|---|---|
| Port_1 | Numeric signal produced by the block. | right | x=80, y=40 |
Parameters
| Parameter | Default value |
|---|---|
Threshold |
255 |
Block Characteristics
| Block type | wrapToZero |
| Family | Math |
