id Name DataType PartType Default ValueType Description
MFString logFeature MFString inputOutput state, child, parent, route, eventIn, eventOut controls the logging of changes, state: log state changes (e.g. live), child: log child add/remove, parent: log parent add/remove, route: log route add/remove; eventIn: log receiving of events, eventOut: log sending of events: guiView, runtime system should create node-view, guiEdit: runtime system should create node-editeverything: log everything
SFBool enabled SFBool inputOutput TRUE Enables/disables the sensor node.
SFBool isActive SFBool outputOnly FALSE isActive true/false events are sent when the sensor gets active
SFNode metadata SFNode inputOutput MetadataObject container for payload metadata inside MetadataSet element
SFString description SFString inputOutput Text description to comment the sensor task. Can be used in run-time systems to give usefull feedback to the user and developer
SFString triggerName SFString initializeOnly Timer name of the dynamic context-slot which is used by the run-time environment (e.g. Jobs) to trigger the node. Life-Nodes will automatically connect the context-eventOutut to the triggerSlot-eventInput Slot.
SFTime duration SFTime initializeOnly 1 [0, Inf) defines the duration time for value chasing
SFTime triggerSlot SFTime inputOnly slot which is used internally to connect a dynamic context-slot which name is set by the triggerName value. Its used automatically to install run-time environment trigger.
SFVec3f initialDestination SFVec3f initializeOnly 0 0 0 initializes the internal destination state of the node
SFVec3f initialValue SFVec3f initializeOnly 0 0 0 initializes the internal value state of the node
SFVec3f set_destination SFVec3f inputOnly The set_destination inputOnly field receives new destination values, resulting in the value_changed field sending output values in most cases.
SFVec3f set_value SFVec3f inputOnly With the set_value inputOnly field, one can immediately force the current value towards a certain value
SFVec3f value_changed SFVec3f outputOnly The value_changed outputOnly field outputs the current value of the internal state
