Requirements: | Quanser Rapid Control Prototyping Toolkit, LabVIEW 2020 or newer, Control Design and Simulation Module |
Clears the watchdog state of a HIL board.
board in is a reference to a HIL Board instance that represents the open HIL board. This input must be wired to a valid HIL Board signal, as generated by a HIL Initialize VI. |
error in describes error conditions occurring before the VI executes. If an error has already occurred, the VI returns the value of the error in cluster in error out.
|
board out is a copy of the HIL Board instance passed to the board in input. |
|||||||
error out contains error information. If the error in cluster indicated an error, the error out cluster contains the same information. Otherwise, error out describes the error status of this VI.
|
When a board is in the watchdog state it is not possible to write to the outputs. Clearing the watchdog state allows the outputs to be written once again. The watchdog state prevents a VI from overwriting the outputs and negating the safety benefit of watchdog timer expiring. The Watchdog Clear VI allows a diagram to recover from watchdog expiry and resume operation.
All input/output pairs of this function have direct feedthrough behaviour.
There are currently no examples
HIL Watchdog Reload | Reloads the watchdog timer. If the watchdog had already expired then it does not clear the expiration state. The watchdog must be cleared in order to begin writing to the outputs again. | |
HIL Watchdog Start | Starts the watchdog timer. If the watchdog timer is allowed to expire then it resets all the outputs of the data acquistion cards to the programmed expiration states. |
