Transmitter and Receiver¶

By means of transmitter-receiver pairs you can build block diagrams which are more clearly. Instead of a direct visual connection of two blocks, you can use a wireless transmission. The connection is established by a common name which must be unique in the drawing. Two or more transmitters having the same name form a short circuit. A transmitter however can transmit a signal to more than on receiver if all have the same name.

It is also possible to transmit signals out of custom blocks without using nodes. But this is recommended for testing purposes only as the transmitter is not visible from outside and can get forgotten.

Example: One transmitter and two receiver blocks with the name Trans:
