PhidgetDigitalOutputMBS.DutyCycle as Double

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
property Phidgets MBS Phidgets Plugin 22.1 ✅ Yes ✅ Yes ✅ Yes ❌ No Desktop, Console & Web
The DutyCycle represents the fraction of time the output is on (high).

A DutyCycle of 1.0 translates to a high output, a DutyCycle of 0 translates to a low output.
A DutyCycle of 0.5 translates to an output that is high half the time, which results in an average output voltage of (output voltage x 0.5)
You can use the DutyCycle to create a dimming effect on LEDs.

Unit: duty cycle (duty cycle)
