<h3>Overview</h3>
<p>The Snapshot object gives a way of storing and recalling
a set of logic values (a snapshot) whilst online. A Snapshot
object can store a number of these snapshots, each of
which can be stored and recalled at any time. Only one
of the following inputs should be high at any one time:
Store; Recall; Clear; Bypass. If more than one of these
inputs is high at any one time, the object will be in
an error condition during which time none of them will
have any effect.</p>
<div class="editsection" style="float: right; margin-left: 5px;">
<p>&#160;</p>
</div>
<p><a name="Store" id="Store"></a></p>
<h3>Store</h3>
<p>To store a snapshot, the data is placed on the data
inputs, the snapshot number is placed on the snapshot
select inputs and the Store input is taken high.</p>
<div class="editsection" style="float: right; margin-left: 5px;">
<p>&#160;</p>
</div>
<p><a name="Recall" id="Recall"></a></p>
<h3>Recall</h3>
<p>Similarly, to recall a snapshot, the snapshot number
is placed on the snapshot select inputs, and the Recall
input is taken high. The object then places the stored
data on the data output. As long as recall is kept high,
any snapshots selected will immediately appear on the
output.</p>

<p><a name="Snapshot_Selection" id="Snapshot_Selection"></a></p>
<h3>Snapshot Selection</h3>
<p>The snapshot select inputs can be interpreted as priority
or binary.</p>
<p class="Preformatted">Priority Mode: the lowest active input specifies the number<br>
Binary Mode: &#160;&#160;all the inputs specify a binary number<br>
</p>
<p>So for example, if only priority inputs S3 and S5 were
active (0001 0100), snapshot 3 would be selected.</p>
<p>In binary, the same input 0001 0100, (B2 and B4 active)
would be interpreted as binary, that is value 20, and
because the first snapshot is stored at binary 0, is snapshot
21.</p>
<p>If set as binary, a pattern of 1010 for instance would
store it as snapshot 6.</p>
<div class="editsection" style="float: right; margin-left: 5px;">
<p>&#160;</p>
</div>
<p><a name="Clear" id="Clear"></a></p>
<h3>Clear</h3>
<p>Clear will set the stored snapshot value for the selected
location to zero. The data outputs will remain unchanged.</p>
<div class="editsection" style="float: right; margin-left: 5px;">
<p>&#160;</p>
</div>
<p><a name="Bypass" id="Bypass"></a></p>
<h3>Bypass</h3>
<p>To bypass the Snapshot object and pass data straight
through from the data input to the data output, the Snapshot
object can be put into bypass mode by setting the Bypass
input high. This mode overrides the data that would be
output by recall, although these actions still work internally.</p>

<p><a name="Logic_Inputs" id="Logic_Inputs"></a></p>
<h3>Logic Inputs</h3>
<p>Sets the number of logic inputs for the Snapshot function,
selectable from 1 to 27. The number of logic outputs will
automatically be set to the same.</p>
<div class="editsection" style="float: right; margin-left: 5px;">
<p>&#160;</p>
</div>
<p><a name="Snapshot_Selection_Inputs" id="Snapshot_Selection_Inputs"></a></p>
<h3>Snapshot Selection Inputs</h3>
<p>Sets the number of inputs to be used for selecting a
Snapshot to be recalled or stored. Depending on whether
the inputs are configured as priority or binary will affect
how many inputs are available.</p>
<p class="Preformatted">Maximum selection inputs<br>
Priority: (28 - Number of Logic Inputs)<br>
Binary &#160;: 8<br>
</p>
<div class="editsection" style="float: right; margin-left: 5px;">
<p>&#160;</p>
</div>
<p><a name="Snapshot_Addressing" id="Snapshot_Addressing"></a></p>
<h3>Snapshot Addressing</h3>
<p>Sets the Snapshot selection to be Priority or Binary.</p>
<p>When set to Priority, only the lowest active snapshot
selection line selects the snapshot. The lowest input,
S1 has the highest priority. Each input selects a single
snapshot so 3 lines allows the storage of 3 snapshots.</p>
<p>When set to Binary, the snapshot selection lines are
interpreted as a binary number, so 3 lines allows the
storage of 8 snapshots.</p>

<p><a name="Clear_Outputs" id="Clear_Outputs"></a></p>
<h3>Clear Outputs</h3>
<p>When set to YES the outputs will be cleared when the
stored snapshot for the selected location is cleared.</p>
