Signal Generator 1Ch

Signal Generator 1Ch can be used to generate various signal curves. The signal type, the frequency, the amplitude and the offset can be set individually. A timestamp is required as a reference value because the algorithm needs a time context in which to operate. This reference timestamp is automatically set if the configuration includes another algorithm. Therefore it is not possible to use the Signal Generator 1Ch individually.

Optionally, a Boolean signal can be selected for the Enable Execution input so that the algorithm is only active if the value of the selected signal is TRUE.

Configuration options

• Amplitude: Configuration of the signal amplitude.
• Frequency: Frequency of the generated signal.
• Function Type: Function type of the generated signal.
  Const: constant
  Rectangle: rectangle function
  Sawtooth: sawtooth function
  Sine: sine function
  Triangle: triangle function
• Offset: constant offset of the generated signal.
• Sample Rate: sample rate of the system to be analyzed.

Output values

• Signal: outputs the generated signal.

Standard HMI Controls

For the Signal Generator 1Ch, the following HMI controls are available for generating an Analytics Dashboard:

1. The SingleValue control visualizes the signal output value.

Alternatively, customer-specific HMI controls can be mapped in the Signal Generator 1Ch algorithm using the Mapping Wizard.
