Using the Agilent VEE Development Environment
How Agilent VEE Programs Work
To see the order of execution, turn on the Debug commands Show
Execution Flow
and Show Data Flow, or click their respective buttons
on the toolbar. Run the program again. Each object highlights when it
executes and a small, square marker moves down the lines to show data
flow.
Note Show Execution Flow and Show Data Flow can be enabled together or
individually by clicking their toolbar buttons or their commands in the
Debug menu. Normally, you should turn these commands off because they
slow down the program.
Lab 1-4: Adding an Amplitude Input and Real64 Slider
Add an amplitude input and a Real64 slider to simple-program.vee.
1. Click on the object menu or press
Ctrl+A with the mouse pointer in the
“terminal area” at the left side of the
Noise Generator. The dialog box
appears for you to add an input, as shown in Figure 1-39.
Figure 1-39. Example: Adding Input Terminals
2. Select Amplitude by clicking OK—an Amplitude input terminal
appears.
Now that the
Noise Generator object has an amplitude input pin, you
can input this data as a real number. VEE provides an object that makes
this easy, called a
Real64 Slider, which is located in the Data menu.
(You could also use the
Real64 Constant object or a Real64 Knob.)
