Usage
overrun
= trigger.timer[
N
].overrun
overrun
Trigger overrun state
N
Trigger timer number (1 to 8)
Details
This attribute indicates if an event was 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 timer 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 delay completion
event. It also is not an indication of a delay overrun.
Example
print(trigger.timer[1].overrun)
If an event was ignored, the output
is
true
.
If the event was not ignored, the
output is
false
.
