supported input types vector support

Termination

Terminates a signal. real, int, uint yes Termination

Probe

Adds a signal to the analog signals list in HIL SCADA. Enabling the "Signal streaming" property allows acquisition and logging the signal at a medium sample rate. The signal name can be overriden in a similar fashion as described in Voltage and curent measurements: General tab. real, int, uint yes Probe

Digital Probe

Adds a signal to the digital signals list in HIL SCADA. Enabling "Signal streaming" property allows acquisition and logging the signal at a medium sample rate. The signal name can be overriden in a similar fashion as described in Voltage and curent measurements: General tab. real, int, uint yes Digital Probe

SCADA Output

Sends a measurement value to SCADA. Its value can be read in all SCADA monitoring widgets using API expression. It does not create a signal in the analog signals list. real, int, uint no SCADA output
