Logical Blocks > Bi-directional Edge (BDE) Trigger function block

Bi-directional Edge Trigger function block application information

The Bi-directional Edge Trigger function block is used to trigger other logical events based on the transition of a logical signal. For example, you can use the block to trigger actions based on the startup or shutdown of equipment.

Note

The output of this block should not be used in a different module unless you are certain that the scan rates match and will not be changed in the future.

You can lengthen the pulse by using an Off-delay Timer function block, or you can use the pulse output to set a latch.
