tsplink.writebit
Function Sets a TSP-Link synchronization line high or low.
TSP-Link
accessibility
This function can be accessed from a remote TSP-Link node.
Usage tsplink.writebit(bit, data)
bit The synchronization line number (1 to 3).
data Value to write to the bit; 0 (low) or 1 (high).
Remarks • If the output line is write protected by the tsplink.writeprotect attribute, the command will
be ignored.
• The reset function does not affect the present states of the digital I/O lines.
• Use the tsplink.writebit and tsplink.writeport commands to control the output
state of the synchronization line when the trigger mode is set to tsplink.TRIG_BYPASS.
Details See TSP-Link synchronization lines in Section 8.
Also see tsplink.readbit, tsplink.readport, tsplink.writebit.
Example Sets synchronization line 3 low (0):
tsplink.writebit(3, 0)
tsplink.writeport
Function Writes to all TSP-Link synchronization lines.
TSP-Link
accessibility
This function can be accessed from a remote TSP-Link node.
Usage tsplink.writeport(data)
data Value to write to the port; 0 to 7.
Remarks • The binary representation of data indicates the output pattern to be written to the I/O port. For
example, a data value of 2 has a binary equivalent of 010. Line 2 is set high (1), and the other 2
lines are set low (0).
• Write protected lines will not be changed (see tsplink.writeprotect).
• The reset function does not affect the present states of the digital I/O lines.
• Use the tsplink.writebit and tsplink.writeport commands to control the output
state of the synchronization line while the trigger mode is set to tsplink.TRIG_BYPASS.
Details See Controlling digital I/O lines in Section 8.
Also see tsplink.readbit, tsplink.readport, tsplink.writebit.
Example Sets the synchronization lines 1 and 2 high (binary 011):
tsplink.writeport(3)
