Flash Mode
In the “flash” mode the output will flash at the time rate while the assignments state is active
(while still observing the polarity setting).

Width and Offset
For multiple bit outputs (for example “Running PSet Number”) the width variable defines the
number of bits the assignment will output. This allows the output size to be restricted to a few bits
saving space for other assignments.
The offset variable allows a fixed value to be added to the value before it is output.
For example, to use bits 4 & 5 of the physical outputs to indicate the selected parameter set
number 1-4 as binary 0-3 the assignment would look like:
Running PSet Number
Bus
1
For the physical bus
Element
0
For the first element on the bus
Bit
4
For the starting bit location
Width
2
To span the two bits 4 & 5
Offset
-1
Adding -
1 to the read input value so we get…
1 = Binary 00
2 = Binary 01
3 = Binary 10
4 = Binary 11
