Linking Technologies: Python Actions

Lets assume, that the input to the C-function should come from a Python function (assume that you have imported a module, which reads a value from a measurement device or your device under test).

Create a new Python-action with input and output pins and type:

# import <your actual modules here>

# dummy - in reality you'd call into your module...
def readFromDevice(portNr):
    return "1.23456"

def execute():
    port = inPin.value()
    outPin.value( readFromDevice(port) )

This can now be connected to the sequence:
