ADC Periodic Vector Definition

This MotoHawk when combined with a number of [ADCPeriodicVectorElement.html ADC Periodic Vector Element] blocks could be used to capture a set of samples from a number of ADC channels. Data Store blocks (such as the [GetEntireADCAngleVector.html Data Store Definition] are used to capture the data in a Queue.

Description

The ADC Periodic Vector blocks uses a module resource to generate a trigger signal for the ADC at the specified rate. The results of the vector are placed in the "Queue" data store. Each row is a sample and each column maps to a resource that is sampled.

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 by related blocks to reference this definition.
Resource	Drop-down list	Select appropriate resource.
Queue Name	'single-quote' enclosed alpha-numeric text	The name of the data store to store the samples. The data store must be a matrix of the data type uint16 where each column represents a single element and each row stores a sample.
Sample Mode	Drop-Down List	The sample mode specifies how the sample cycle is restarted. "Circular" means that the sampling continues until "Max Samples" is reached even if it starts over at the beginning of the queue. "Stop when Full" will terminate sampling when the queue is full.
