Delay Tool Wiring Diagram
Any I/O Toolbox event stream can be selected as the input 1 source.
Any I/O Toolbox event stream can be selected as the input 2 source.
The tool feeds two I/O Toolbox event streams. The outputs of the tool instance <i> are named DEL<i>1 and DEL<i>2.
Delay Tool Operation
The event streams applied on either inputs (In1 and In2) are replicated on the corresponding output (Out1 and Out2) after a configurable number of clock tick events.
The sources are selected by DelayToolSource1
and DelayToolSource2
respectively.
The same delay applies to both channels. The common delay is defined by DelayToolDelayValue
. The delay range is 0 up to
16,777,215 clock ticks.
The same clock source applies to both channels. The clock source is defined by DelayToolClockSource
. It can be a time
baseor a line tool event stream.
Selecting a time base implements a time delay function. The available time bases are:
8NS
: A 125 MHz high accuracy regular time base allowing delays up to 134 milliseconds by steps of 8 ns200NS
: A 5 MHz high accuracy regular time base allowing delays up to 3.35 seconds by steps of 200 ns1US
: A 1 MHz high accuracy regular time base allowing delays up to 16.7 seconds by steps of 1 µs
Selecting a line tool event stream implements a position offset function when the line tool is fed by a motion encoder device. Any available Line Input tool or Quadrature Decoder tool can be used as delay clock source.
