Section 8: TSP command reference

Details
This command indicates whether an event has been ignored because the event detector was already
in the detected state when the event occurred.
This is an indication of the state of the event detector built into the synchronization line itself.
It does not indicate if an overrun occurred in any other part of the trigger model, or in any other
construct that is monitoring the event. It also is not an indication of an output trigger overrun.
Example
print(trigger.tsplinkin[1].overrun)
If an event on line 1 was ignored,
displays
true
; if no additional event
occurred, displays
false
.

Usage
triggered
= trigger.tsplinkin[
N
].wait(
timeout
)
triggered
Trigger detection indication; set to one of the following values:
•
true
: A trigger is detected during the timeout period
•
false
: A trigger is not detected during the timeout period
N
The trigger line (1 to 3)
timeout
The timeout value in seconds
Details
This function waits up to the timeout value for an input trigger. If one or more trigger events are
detected since the last time this command or
trigger.tsplinkin[
N
].clear()
was called, this
function returns immediately.
After waiting for a trigger with this function, the event detector is automatically reset and rearmed.
This is true regardless of the number of events detected.
Example
tsplink.line[3].mode = tsplink.MODE_TRIGGER_OPEN_DRAIN
triggered = trigger.tsplinkin[3].wait(10)
print(triggered)
Waits up to 10 s for a trigger on
TSP-Link
®
line 3.
If
false
is returned, no trigger
was detected during the 10-s
timeout.
If
true
is returned, a trigger was
detected.
