	Control_Pulse
Controls if the toggle input is enabled or disabled allowing you to stop and start the waveform.
- BYTE	State
0=Disabled, 1=Enabled
- VOID	Return

	Get_Pulse_Count
Reads the number of pulses remaining in the current run. The Pulse Count property needs to have an initial value > 0 to switch on the pulse counting mode.
- ULONG	Return

	Set_Space
Overrides the component property setting allowing for a variable frequency input or adjustable Space timings.
- UINT	Delay
Delay between transitiions in milliseconds.
- VOID	Return

	Set_Pulse_Count
Overrides the number of pulses. The Pulse Count property needs to have an initial value > 0 to switch on the pulse counting mode.
- ULONG	PulseCount
Number of pulses to output
- VOID	Return

	Set_Frequency
Allows the frequency to be changed on the fly
- FLOAT	Frequency
- VOID	Return

	Set_Mark
Overrides the component property setting allowing for a variable frequency input or adjustable Mark timings.
- UINT	Delay
Delay between transitiions in milliseconds.
- VOID	Return

Property reference

	Properties
	Pin
Pin to toggle - connected to the external waveform on the target hardware.
	Startup Mode
Controls if the pulses start when the simulation is started or when the simulation Control_Pulse macro is called.
	Mode
	Frequency (Hz)
Frequency to try and acheive.
	Period Delay (ms)
Delay in milliseconds for a whole period of 0 and 1.
	Mark Delay (ms)
Delay in milliseconds to wait to toggle the pin. Note that Windows can only acheive timings of 10ms or more.
	Space Delay (ms)
	Pulse Count
Number of pulses to output. 0 = Run forever. > 0 = Output the selected number of pulses
