|
Control_Pulse |
| Controls if the toggle input is enabled or disabled allowing you to stop and start the waveform. | |
 - BYTE
|
State |
| 0=Disabled, 1=Enabled | |
 - VOID
|
Return |
|
|
Get_Pulse_Count |
| Reads the number of pulses remaining in the current run. The Pulse Count property needs to have an initial value > 0 to switch on the pulse counting mode. | |
 - ULONG
|
Return |
|
|
Set_Space |
| Overrides the component property setting allowing for a variable frequency input or adjustable Space timings. | |
 - UINT
|
Delay |
| Delay between transitiions in milliseconds. | |
| - VOID
|
Return |
|
|
Set_Pulse_Count |
| Overrides the number of pulses. The Pulse Count property needs to have an initial value > 0 to switch on the pulse counting mode. | |
| - ULONG
|
PulseCount |
| Number of pulses to output | |
| - VOID
|
Return |
|
|
Set_Frequency |
| Allows the frequency to be changed on the fly | |
 - FLOAT
|
Frequency |
| - VOID
|
Return |
|
|
Set_Mark |
| Overrides the component property setting allowing for a variable frequency input or adjustable Mark timings. | |
| - UINT
|
Delay |
| Delay between transitiions in milliseconds. | |
| - VOID
|
Return |
Property reference
|
Properties |
|
Pin |
| Pin to toggle - connected to the external waveform on the target hardware. | |
|
Startup Mode |
| Controls if the pulses start when the simulation is started or when the simulation Control_Pulse macro is called. | |
|
|
Mode |
|
Frequency (Hz) |
| Frequency to try and acheive. | |
|
Period Delay (ms) |
| Delay in milliseconds for a whole period of 0 and 1. | |
|
|
Mark Delay (ms) |
| Delay in milliseconds to wait to toggle the pin. Note that Windows can only acheive timings of 10ms or more. | |
|
|
Space Delay (ms) |
|
|
Pulse Count |
| Number of pulses to output. 0 = Run forever. > 0 = Output the selected number of pulses | |
