ConstantConverterTime

A constant time value is turned into a constant signal

Information

This information is part of the Business Simulation Library (BSL). Please support this work and ► donate.

The parameter value is used to set the continous output y making it a constant-valued signal. The output will always give times in seconds [s], but values can be entered in non-SI-units of time using displayUnit.
