Input

Data type

Outputs

Output

Data type

Description

Q

BOOL

TRUE when the signal is finished.

OUT

REAL

Generated signal.

ET

TIME

Elapsed time.

Remarks

The ID argument is the identifier of the signal resource. Use the SigID function to get this value.

The IN argument is used as a Play / Pause command to play the signal. The signal is not reset to the beginning when IN becomes FALSE. Instead, use the RST input that resets the signal and forces the OUT output to 0.

The TM input specifies the minimum amount of time in between two changes of the output signal. This parameter is ignored if less than the cycle scan time.

This function block includes its own timer. Alternatively, you can use the SigScale function if you want to trigger the signal using a specific timer.
