Class SoOneShot

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    SafeDisposable

    public class SoOneShot
    extends SoEngine
    Timer that runs for a pre-set amount of time. This engine is a timer that runs for a pre-set amount of time and then stops. By default, the timeIn input is connected to the realTime global field. It can, however, by connected to any other time source.

    The timer is started when the trigger input is touched. It then runs for the specified duration, and updates the timeOut output with the time that has elapsed. During that time, the ramp output is also updated. The ramp output starts at 0.0 at the beginning of the cycle, and linearly increases until it reaches 1.0 at the end of the cycle.

    You can disable the timer by setting the disable input to true. The output value remains 0.0 while the timer is disabled. If the timer is disabled in the middle of a cycle the output values will be set to 0.0.

    The flags input contains control flags. Using the flags you can set the timer to be retriggerable in the middle of a cycle, and set the output values to stay high after the cycle has been completed. By default, these flags are not set.

    File format/default:

    OneShot {

      duration 1
      trigger
      flags ()
      disable false
      timeIn <current time>
    }
