Example
trigger.timer[4].delay = 0.5
trigger.timer[4].start.stimulus = trigger.EVENT_NOTIFY8
trigger.timer[4].start.generate = trigger.OFF
trigger.timer[4].count = 20
trigger.timer[4].enable = trigger.ON

trigger.timer[N].start.overrun
This attribute indicates if an event was ignored because of the event detector state.
Type TSP-Link accessible Affected by Where saved Default value
Usage
state = trigger.timer[N].start.overrun
The trigger overrun state (true or false)
Trigger timer number (1 to 4)
Details
This command indicates if an event was ignored because the event detector was already in the
detected state when the event occurred.
This is an indication of the state of the event detector built into the timer itself. It does not indicate if
an overrun occurred in any other part of the trigger model or in any other construct that is monitoring
the delay completion event. It also is not an indication of a delay overrun.
Example
print(trigger.timer[1].start.overrun)
If an event was ignored, the output is
.
If the event was not ignored, the output is false.
