Trigger a binary signal on-the-fly
1. Select View>I/O Stimulation from the main menu bar.
The I/O Stimulation window opens, showing all I/O pins for your selected MCU.
2. Click on the pin name to select it.
3. Right-click in the value field corresponding to the pin that you want to simulate a signal
on.
A pop-up box appears.
4. Select one of the values (GND = 0, VDD = 1) from the pop-up box.
Because no delay can be specified, the signal is sent instantly to the input pin you selected.

Create and load a stimuli file
A stimuli file is a text file using the .in extension that provides the simulator with a script of
input signals to generate on pins during the simulation. A stimuli file can be created using
any text editor (such as the STVD Editor) and the syntax described in Ta ble 6 2. It must be
saved with the file extension .in.
The stimuli file syntax allows you to define digital signals, periodic digital signals or analog
signals.
