    RandomNumber

    This simulation component outputs a random double value.

    RandomNumber

    When to use

    Use this simulation component if you want to output a random double value when the simulation component gets triggered.

    RandomNumber connected to ScriptComponent

    How to use

    Add this simulation component from the simulation component library. When the simulation is running and the input Trigger is triggered, the simulation component outputs a random numeric value.

    Parameters

    MaxValue

    A value indicating the upper limit of the random double output.

    MinValue

    A value indicating the lower limit of the random double output.

    Inputs

    Trigger

    If triggered, this input generates a Random numeric double value.

    Outputs

    Random

    Outputs a random double value.

    Example

    In this example, the LightBarrier simulation component triggers a random double value between 0 and 5 when the ray gets interrupted.

    RandomNumber example Properties

    The machine control, which was mapped with the help of the ScriptComponent simulation component, processes this value and must react accordingly.

    RandomNumber interacts with LightBarrier and ScriptComponent
