Timer for experiment
Hi Jeff,
I'm using Vizard to run an experiment. I used viz.tick() to register a startTime for an action e.g. turn ON the power of a system. I added a delay for the simulation to complete the process. Recently, I added viz.pause and viz.play to my program so that I could pause the simulation at any time to ask questions. However, I realized that viz.tick() is still running even when I pause the simulation. As my progress bar update is based on viz.tick() it did not pause as I expected. Is there ways to stop viz.tick() when I pause the program or would you recommends I use other methods to register my time. Thank you. def displayProcessTime(): global RemainingTime global StartTime global EstimatedTime global Time print 'displayProcessTime function' if 'SHUTDOWN' not in instrList[currentStep[0]][0]: StartTime = viz.tick() EstimatedTime = StartTime + int(timing[instrument][1]) #RemainingTime = EstimatedTime - viz.tick() else: StartTime = viz.tick() EstimatedTime = StartTime + int(timing[instrument][2]) #RemainingTime = EstimatedTime - viz.tick() ..... while viz.tick() <= EstimatedTime: print 'SSRMS PB' yield viztask.waitTime(0.5) UpdateProgressBar() myBar.set(ProgressBarLevel) |
Try using the viz.getFrameTime command. The frame time will not increase when viz.pause is called:
Code:

All times are GMT -7. The time now is 11:39 AM. |
