Timer Node
The Timer Node
triggers periodically events containing a timestamp to the output Port
.
The example above shows 3 output messages for Emulation Timer Iterations
: 3 and Timer Step
: 1 sec
The Timer Node
has 3 configurable parameters:
Emulation Start Time
. This parameter is used to synchronise theTimer Node
with timestamps in the sample data. The parameter has the minimum value1000000000
. The parameter is used for emulation and is not applied during runtime execution.Emulation Time Iterations
. The parameter is used to limit the number of iterations during emulation. The parameter has the minimum value1
and the maximum value1000
. The parameter is used for emulation and is not applied during runtime execution.Timer Step
. The parameter is used to set the frequency of events triggereg by theTimer Node
. The parameter has the minimum value0.001 sec
and the maximum value172800 sec
(48 hours). The parameter is used both for emulation and is applied during runtime execution.
