modulo reset [message #41703]

Hi there,

I'm reading out some binary data and the description says this about a data field :

in the case of a modulo reset add 2^32

What is this about? googling for "modulo reset" didn't get me far;
I only imagine that I need some kind of overflow to get things fixed,
but it is very unclear to me what is happening and why ...

and how to do it with IDL, i tried
long(datafield + 2d^32d) = data
which doesn't seem right ...

thanks,
-Ralf
