Data Delay
The Data Delay block delays passing its input value for a specified amount of
time. It does not modify its input value. Specify the length of the delay with the
Delay attribute.
Handling Multiple Signals
If Multiple Invocations is ok, the block can begin a delay while in the midst of
delaying another value. If Multiple Invocations is queue, the second and subsequent delays will be started after the previous delay is finished, using the current
input value. If Multiple Invocations is ignore, the block handles only one delay at
a time, and inputs received during another delay are ignored. We recommend
specifying Multiple Invocations for a Data Delay as either ok or ignore.
Resetting
When you reset a Data Delay block, values being delayed are lost.
Configuring
This is the configuration panel for the Data Delay block.
