Configuring Inputs¶
An input brings a value into the controller — from a physical pin, the CAN
bus, or computed from other inputs. Every input shares the
Common IO Settings; each type adds its own options.
Inputs fall into three groups.
Physical (hardware-pin) inputs¶
| Input | Reads | Page |
|---|---|---|
| Analog Input | Analog voltage on a pin | Analog Input |
| Digital Input | On/off (shorted to sGND) with debounce/invert | Digital Input |
| Frequency Input | Frequency, speed, duty or pulse time from a pin | Frequency Input |
| Analog Switch Input | Resistor-ladder / voltage switch | Analog Switch Input |
Communication inputs¶
| Input | Reads | Page |
|---|---|---|
| CAN Bus Input | A signal from a raw CAN frame | CAN-Bus Input |
| CAN Object Input | A named object provided by a CAN Preset | CAN-Object Input |
Computed / logical / virtual inputs¶
| Input | Produces | Page |
|---|---|---|
| Constant Value Input | A fixed value | Constant Value Input |
| Compare Input | A boolean (1024 / 0) from a comparison | Compare Input |
| Math / Divide Input | Maths between two inputs | Math Input |
| Map Input | 1D lookup on another input | Map Input |
| Mux Input | Selects 1 of 8 inputs | Mux Input |
| Counter Input | Up/down/reset counter | Counter Input |
| Waveform Input | Time-based generated signal | Waveform Input |
| RBC Input | Decodes Gray code from a set of bit inputs | RBC Input |
| Virtual Input | Value set from the datalogger (USB sliders) | Virtual Input |
| System Input | A system value, selected by pin | System Input |
Not documented here: Test Input and AHRS Input (developer/diagnostic), Current
Sense Input (diagnostic), QEI Input (diff-controller only), and the internal
template-only types Gear Ratio Calculator and Clutch Slip Counter. Duty
measurement is covered by the Frequency Input (Duty mode), and the legacy
standalone Frequency/Duty inputs are folded into it.
