Function If there is a rising edge at the Trigger input at any time,
the internal timer is set to zero and starts to run, the
output becomes TRUE.
If the Trigger input becomes FALSE again during the
pulse time, this has no impact on the expiration of the
pulse time.
Once the internal timer has expired, the output be-
comes FALSE.
If the value of Time_ms is less than the cycle time, the
cycle time applies instead.
Initial state All inputs and outputs are FALSE.

8.30.1.3.11 Symmetrical pulse generator
Description CLCK, symmetrical pulse generator
Inputs Enable (BOOL)
Outputs Output (BOOL)
Parameter Time ms (UINT32), 1...1,000,000, default = 1,000
Function The internal timer runs for a long as Enable is TRUE.
When the internal timer has reached or exceeded the
configured time value, the status of the output changes
and the timer is restarted. The configured time there-
fore corresponds to half the period duration of the re-
sulting signal. If the Enable input becomes FALSE, the
output also instantly becomes FALSE and the internal
timer is reset.
If the value of Time_ms is less than the cycle time, the
cycle time applies instead.
Initial state All inputs and outputs are FALSE.
