ADC Periodic Vector Definition

This block is used to associate an ADC input to a queue entry and the trigger source generated by the ADC Periodic Vector System Definition block. This would correspond to one of the grey blocks in the figure below.

 

Block ID

ADC Periodic Vector Definition

Library

MotoHawk_lib/Analog I/O Blocks

Description

 

The ADC Periodic Vector behavior allows multiple ADC channels to be sampled. This block associates an ADC input resource to an ADC Periodic Vector Definition.

Vector data is stored into the Data Store named in the associated ADC Periodic Vector System Definition, in the column specified by 'Queue Column'.

Block Parameters

Parameter Field Values Comments/Description
Name 'single-quote' enclosed alpha-numeric text No special characters such as spaces, dashes, commas (underscore allowed). Select a unqiue name. This name shall be used within the ADC Periodic Vector System Definition to reference this element.
Resource Drop-down list Select the ADC resource to be sampled.
Vector Name 'single-quote' enclosed alpha-numeric text Set to the name of the ADC Periodic Vector System Definition block that this element applies to
Queue Column Numeric (Integer) This parameter maps the resource to a particular column in the queue. It must be unique for a particular ADC Periodic Vector System Definition and it is zero-based.
