DigitalInput

source Operator

Produces a sequence of digital input data from an ONIX breakout board.

This data IO operator must be linked to an appropriate configuration, such as a ConfigureDigitalIO, using a shared DeviceName.

DigitalInput Workflow

Inputs & Outputs

Generates a sequence of digital input data frames, each of which contains information about breakout board's digital input state.

Digital inputs are sampled at 4 MHz but a DigitalInputDataFrame is produced only when a button, switch, or digital input pin is toggled.

Properties

Property Type Description
DeviceName string

Gets or sets a unique device name.

The device name provides a unique, human-readable identifier that is used to link software elements for configuration, control, and data streaming to hardware. For instance, it can be used to link configuration operators to data IO operators within a workflow. This value is usually not set manually, but is assigned in a MultiDeviceFactory to correspond to a fixed address with a piece of hardware such as a headstage. This address is used for software communication.
