Digital Output

Represent one pin as digital output and set logical value

Add-On Required: This feature requires the Simulink Coder Support Package for ARM Cortex-based VEX Microcontroller add-on.

Libraries:
Simulink Coder Support Package for ARM Cortex-based VEX Microcontroller / Actuators

Description

The Digital Output block is used to represent one of the 12 digital IO pins on an ARM^® Cortex^®-based VEX^® Microcontroller as a digital output. The block sets the digital/logical value (1 or 0) of the pin. For information on the pin layout of the microcontroller, see the VEX Cortex Pin-Out diagram from VEX Robotics.

Ports

Input

Port_1 — Sets logical value (1 or 0) of pin

1 | 0

Connect the input port to a block that generates a logical value (1 or 0).

Data Types: Boolean

Output

Port_1 — Signal used during simulation

1 | 0

Connect an appropriate sink block from the Utilities library in Simulink^® Support Package for ARM Cortex-based VEX Microcontroller to the output port to view the simulation output.

During simulations, this block emits zeroes if no block is connected the input port (see Block Produces Zeros or Does Nothing in Simulation).

Dependencies

This port appears only when you select the Add output port for simulation parameter.

Data Types: Boolean

Parameters

Digital Port (1 to 12) — Select digital pin (or port) on VEX Microcontroller

1 (default) | integer in the range [1 12]

You can select one of the 12 digital IO pins on the VEX Microcontroller to act as digital output.

Do not assign the same pin number to multiple blocks in your model.

Add output port for simulation — Add output port to simulate logical output

off (default) | on

Select this check box to add an output port that simulates the logical output of the block.
