Basic Characteristics RAPID

PulseDO Generates a pulse on a digital output signal
Examples
Arguments
PulseDO is used to generate a pulse on a digital output signal.
PulseDO do15;
A pulse with a pulse length of 0.2 s is generated on the output signal do15.
PulseDO \PLength:=1.0, ignition;
A pulse of length 1.0 s is generated on the signal ignition.
PulseDO [ \PLength ] Signal
[ \PLength ] (Pulse Length) Data type: num
The length of the pulse in seconds (0.1 - 32s).
If the argument is omitted, a 0.2 second pulse is generated.
Signal Data type: signaldo
Program execution
