Need a trigger

Postby bflynn » Thu Feb 23, 2012 7:49 pm

Im trying to make a trigger that will trigger an output once every 2 secs. Any ideas? or a tick that would trigger once every 1.5 to 2 secs?
Thanks guys!

This is even simpler:

Both this and the one from Morph use the Windows Timers, which are not very accurate but fine for display etc.

If you want it to be super accurate you can make one using the Ruby module, this uses a different more accurate timers.
