MLTrigReadDelay

Description

Electronic sensors are not able to respond immediately to a signal. Sensors usually require a certain amount of time to process a change of state in their input signal. This function returns the delay that has been programmed in a trigger block by the MLTrigWriteDelay function to compensate for this reaction time required by the sensor A sensor is a type of transducer that converts one type of energy into another for various purposes including measurement or information transfer.
