INPut Subsystem

The INPut Subsystem configures the input de-bounce circuitry and specifies the
input clock source.

INPut

n:CLOCk[:SOURce]

Specifies the input circuitry clock source for Port n.

Parameters

Comments

When the clock source is set to INTernal, the input data is sampled by the

internal clock. When the clock is set to EXTernal, the input data is sampled on
negative-edge transitions of the input clock.

This is the clock source for clocking new data from the optical isolators into

the input circuitry. New data is automatically clocked into the input debounce
circuitry for each clock pulse of the internal clock when the clock source is
INTernal. Refer to the INPut:DEBounce:TIME command to set the Debounce
time.

For a clock source of EXTernal, new data is clocked into the input circuitry

when the external clock receives a clock pulse. Data is clocked into the input
circuitry on the positive edge of the external clock.

Note that the debounce circuitry, current value registers, and event detectors

are always clocked by the internal clock.

Note: if a Data Available Event is enabled for the port, attempting to set the

clock source to INTernal will result in an error -221, "Settings Conflict".

*RST Condition: sets the input clock source to INTernal.
