Class SchmidtTrigger

java.lang.Object

stella.util.SchmidtTrigger

All Implemented Interfaces:

Toggling

Direct Known Subclasses:

SchmidtIntegralTrigger

public class SchmidtTrigger
extends Object
implements Toggling

A Schmidt trigger. The Schmidt trigger needs two values, the on and off value. The history of the toggle state is taken into account in a very basic way: If the current toggle state is true, the new value added needs to fall below the off value to change the toggle state to false. On the other side, if the toggle state is at false, the new value added must be at least above the on value to toggle.

Field Detail

icurrent

private boolean icurrent

The current state of the toggle trigger.

on

private double on

The value that must be exceeded to turn the toggle from false to true.

off

private double off

The value that must be undercut to turn the toggle from true to false.

Constructor Detail

SchmidtTrigger

protected SchmidtTrigger()

Common constructor. Do not use. The toggle value starts with false;

SchmidtTrigger

public SchmidtTrigger(String parameter)

Constructs a new Schmidt trigger. The two toggle values, off and on must be separated with a comma.

SchmidtTrigger

protected SchmidtTrigger(double offtrig,
                         double ontrig)

Constructs a new Schmidt trigger. Note that the first argument, the off trigger must be less than the second argument, the on trigger.

Method Detail

parse

protected void parse(String parameter)

The two toggle values, off and on must be separated with a comma.

Parameters:

parameter -

setTriggers

protected void setTriggers(double offtrig,
                           double ontrig)

Sets the two trigger values. The first argument must be less than the second.

addHit

public boolean addHit(double val)

Return true, if the argument value is above the appropriate trigger. If the current state of the Schmidt trigger is on, than the on value is used, the off value otherwise.

Specified by:

addHit in interface Toggling

toString

public String toString()

Returns the two toggle edges as a description.

Overrides:
