Outputs

The Outputs element can be used to add read-only Signals, which can be read out, traced and connected to inputs of other processing blocks.

Example

Outputs:
  - Name: "KfcOutput"
    DataType: "Float"
    Description: "Coulomb friction compensation output."

  - Name: "AbsolutePosition"
    DataType: "Double"
    Unit: "m"
    LowerBound: "-0.123"
    UpperBound: "1.23"
    Description: "Absolute Position."

YAML schema

Schema for Outputs

Outputs: list(include('Signal'), required=False)

Schema for Signals

Signal:
  Name: name()
  DataType: Enum("Uint8", "Uint16", "Uint32", "Uint64", "Int8", "Int16", "Int32", "Int64", "Float", "Double", "Bool", required=True)
  Description: str(required=False)
  Unit: str(required=False)
  LowerBound: str(required=False)
  UpperBound: str(required=False)
  ResetValue: str(required=False)

Signal attributes

Attribute	Required	Description
Name	Yes	The name of the signal. Should comply with the Naming conventions.
DataType	Yes	The data type, supported types: “Uint8”, “Uint16”, “Uint32”, “Uint64”, “Int8”, “Int16”, “Int32”, “Int64”, “Float”, “Double”, “Bool”.
Description	No	The Description attribute of the signal.
Unit	No	The Unit attribute of the signal.
LowerBound	No	The LowerBound attribute of the signal. For Float and Double outputs the lower bound can be set to -Inf.
UpperBound	No	The UpperBound attribute of the signal. For Float and Double outputs the upper bound can be set to Inf.
ResetValue	No	The ResetValue attribute of the signal. The default reset value is 0. For Float and Double outputs the reset value can be set to NaN.
