Arguments

'Address'

IP address of the target computer

'Trigger'

Trigger signal (rising edge), with which ping is to be sent

'Timeout'

Optional parameter (default = 5) for setting the period to wait for a response before "no response" is shown as a result.

'Size'

Optional parameter: Size, in bytes, of the ping request (default = 32)

Description

This function sends a ping request to 'Address' upon a rising edge of 'Trigger'. The function returns the time, in milliseconds, needed before the ping response was received. If there is no response within 'Timeout' seconds then -1 is issued. The result is 0 as long as no ping request was sent. 'Size' determines the size of the ping request in bytes.

The function returns an analog value as the result.
