UT_TOGGLE — Push-on / push-off

UT_TOGGLE — Push-on / push-off

One pushbutton turns something on, the next press turns it off.

Pins

Pin Type Default What to wire
in In BOOL FALSE Pushbutton. Each press (rising edge) flips Q
in Reset BOOL FALSE Forces Q off while held (wins over everything)
in ForceOn BOOL FALSE Forces Q on while held (Set is avoided as a name)
out Q BOOL

How it works

  • Only a press counts: holding the button does nothing more, and releasing it does nothing.
  • Reset wins over ForceOn, and both win over the button. A press while either is held is ignored, and releasing them with the button still held doesn't count as a press.
  • ForceOn leaves Q on when it releases.
  • Power cut: nothing is kept. Q starts off.
  • Like the standard R_TRIG, a button already held on the first scan after start counts as a press.
