On Delay

If you want your false signal to be True after a certain period of time, you should use this block. If a False signal is now True, it will continue to be False at the block output until the time (seconds) written in the block. Outputs as True after the expiry of the time.
ON Delay Node Documentation
The ON Delay node in AugeLab Studio is used to add a delay when an input signal goes to a True state (1). It introduces a time delay between the input signal changing to True and the output signal following suit.
Node Overview
The ON Delay node waits for a specified period of time after the input signal changes to True before changing the output signal to True. This delay can be useful in scenarios where you need to maintain the output signal in the False state for a certain duration after the input signal goes True.
Node Interaction
1.Drag and drop the ON Delay node from the node library onto the canvas in AugeLab Studio.
2.Connect the input signal to the input socket of the node.
3.Set the delay time in seconds using the "Delay Time" parameter. This specifies the duration for which the output signal remains False after the input signal goes True.
4.The node will output the input signal as long as it is False, and after the specified delay time has elapsed, the output signal will change to True.
Input and Output Sockets
The ON Delay node has a single input socket labeled "Input" and a single output socket labeled "Output." The input socket accepts a boolean signal (True or False), and the output socket outputs the delayed signal.
Parameter Configuration
The ON Delay node has a parameter called "Delay Time" that allows you to configure the duration of the delay in seconds. By default, it is set to 5 seconds. You can modify this value according to your requirements.
Implementation Details
The ON Delay node tracks the state of the input signal and introduces a delay when the signal goes from False to True. The steps involved in the on delay process are as follows:
1.Input Retrieval: The node retrieves the input signal.
2.Delay Calculation: If the input signal goes from False to True, the node starts a delay timer.
3.Delay Duration: The node waits for the specified delay time.
4.Output Signal: After the delay time has elapsed, the node changes the output signal to True.
Usage
1.Drag and drop the ON Delay node from the node library onto the canvas in AugeLab Studio.
2.Connect the input signal to the "Input" socket of the node.
3.Set the delay time using the "Delay Time" parameter.
4.Run the pipeline or execute the node to observe the delayed output signal.
5.Use the delayed output signal in downstream nodes or further processing as needed.
Notes
The ON Delay node is useful in scenarios where you need to maintain a signal in the False state for a certain duration after the input signal goes True.
It can be used in automation systems, control circuits, or any application where a delayed signal transition is required.
The delay time can be adjusted to meet specific timing requirements.
The ON Delay node can be combined with other nodes and operations to create complex signal processing workflows.
The node provides a visual and intuitive way to add a delay to an input signal and control the timing of the output signal.
It enhances the capabilities of AugeLab Studio for signal processing, automation, and control system design.
