Details
This function waits up to the timeout value for an input trigger. If one or more trigger events were detected since
the last time
tsplink.trigger[N].wait()
or
tsplink.trigger[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
triggered = tsplink.trigger[3].wait(10)
print(triggered)
Waits up to 10 seconds for a trigger
on TSP-Link line 3.
If
false
is returned, no trigger was
detected during the 10-second
timeout.
If
true
is returned, a trigger was
detected.
