Base Components

The Base components are designed to provide a simplified interface to create a new component by packing in most of the functionality and then allowing you to wrap your own personalised graphical user interface around.

Several base components currently exist in Flowcode to allow you to create several different kinds of components.

• LED Base - Base for creating LEDs and other on/off visual indicators.

• Button Helper - A button overlay that allows any object to behave like a button

• Switch Base - Base single pin switch with no graphical interface

• Simulation Switch Base - A base for building switches that do not download to chip i.e. have no pin connection.

• ADC Base - Base ADC component functionality with no graphical interface.

• gLCD Base - Base graphical LCD with simulation only interface to allow graphics to be drawn in simulation.

• Keypad Base - Generic component to create a raster scanned custom keypad or button matrix.

• Proximity Switch Base - Polls a chosen panel object to test it's distance from the component.

• Motor Base - Base component for constructing continuous motion - e.g. motors etc.

• Servo Motor Base - Base component for creating custom servo motor simulations.

• Solenoid Base - Base component for constructing solenoids.

• Stepper Motor Base - Enables the creation of a stepper motor component by specifying objects for its appearance.
