kitControl-Ramp
This component provides a StatusNumeric Out with a linear ramping output. Properties define the Period, Amplitude, Offset, and Update Interval.
Ramp is available in the Util folder of the kitControl palette.
| Property | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Facets | Config Facets window (defaults to null units, a single decimal place, minimum=negative infinity, and maximum=positive infinity) | Selects units and configures how the value displays: units defines the unit of measure fromacceleration to volumetric flow. precision defines the number of decimal places. min defines the lowest value allowed. max defines the highest value allowed. This definition applies to the Out property value for this component. |
| Out | read-only number | Reports the result of the calculation. |
| Period | hours minutes seconds (defaults to 30 seconds) | Defines the duration of the ramp. |
| Amplitude | number of decibels (defaults to 50.00) | Amplitude is height of the ramp from its lowest to highest point. |
| Offset | positive or negative number to two decimal places (defaults to 50.00) | Adjusts the amplitude. |
| Update Interval | hours minutes seconds (defaults to one second) | Specifies the time between output changes. A smaller value results in a more accurate ramp with more changes per second, while a larger value results in less precision but with less overhead. |
| Waveform | drop-down list | Selects the type of waveform: Triangle Saw Tooth Inverted Saw Tooth |
