Boolean Input

Overview

Emits a boolean value (true or false) into the flow from an external connection. It acts as an entry point for binary signals from external hardware or other flows.

Use Boolean Input when:

• Receiving binary signals from industrial controllers (for example ADAM-6060).
• Bridging data from one flow to another.

💡 Tip

Use this node to integrate external physical triggers, like a push button or a sensor trip, into your logic.

Outputs

Name	Type	Description
bool	bool	Returns a boolean value based on the received value.

Parameters

This node does not have any configuration parameters.

Example

External trigger

A physical button is connected to the system using ADAM-6060. When pressed, it sends a true signal to the flow.

Configuration:

• (No configuration required)

Result: The flow receives a true value and triggers the subsequent logic.
