wait_analog_input(ch, condition, val, timeout=None)

Features

It waits until the signal value of the analog input channel of the controller becomes val (float value). The wait time can be changed with the timeout setting, and the result is returned as soon as the wait state ends after the specified amount of time has elapsed. However, if timeout is not set, it will wait indefinitely.

Parameters

Parameter Name	Data Type	Default Value	Description
ch	int	-	1 : channel 1 2 : channel 2
condition	int	-	Analog value comparison condition DR_ANALOG_CONDITION_UPPER: 0 Wait until the received analog input is greater than or equal to the val parameter. DR_ANALOG_CONDITION_LOWER : 1 Wait until the received analog input is less than or equal to the val parameter
val	float	-	current mode : 4.00 ~ 20.00(mA) voltage mode : 0.00 ~ 10.00(V)
timeout	float	None	waiting time [sec] If not set, wait indefinitely

Return

Value	Description
0	Success
-1	Failed(time-out)

DR_Error (DR_ERROR_VALUE)	Parameter value is invalid
DR_Error (DR_ERROR_RUNTIME)	C extension module error occurred
DR_Error (DR_ERROR_STOP)	Program terminated forcefully
