SYNOPSIS

10       INIT("pattern_date","ident","value");
11
12

PARAMETERS

14       pattern_date
15                 :  pattern date which may be either : integer (absolute date)
16                 or + integer (relative date, the date of the current  pattern
17                 (last  modified  using INIT or AFFECT) is the reference). All
18                 dates are supposed to be expressed  in  the  same  time  unit
19                 which may be set only once using SETTUNIT.
20
21
22       ident     Either  the  name  of  a bused register or a simple register.
23                 Path-name   must   be   specified    by    the    syntax    :
24                 instance1.instance11.name
25
26       value     The  value  associated  with the signal which may be either a
27                 based number (ex.  0B011 or 0H3F) or a decimal.

DESCRIPTION

31       Initialize registers at indicated values and set current pattern.
32
33

EXAMPLE

35       SETTUNIT("ns");
36       INIT( "25","regt","0B1");
37       INIT("+50","y 3 downto 0","0xF");
38
39       result :
40       At simulation time 25 ns, the register named regt receive "1"
41            regt <= B"1" ;
42       <   25 ns> : .............;
43
44       At simulation time +50 ns, (related to the date of the current pattern),
45       the vector y is affected with the value 15 in decimal or F in hexadecimal.
46            regt <= X"F" ;
47       <   75 ns> : .............;
