Char Multi-Source Merger

Summary

Use this component to merge character inputs from multiple pins into a single output stream.

Description

The **Char Multi-Source Merger** component receives character data on multiple input pins and merges them into a single **Out** pin. The number of input pins is determined by the **Input Pins** property (default is 2). Each configured pin (e.g., **Pin [0]**, **Pin [1]**, etc.) can input a character that, depending on your logic or selection rules, is forwarded to the **Out** pin.

This component is useful for combining multiple character sources—such as alternating data streams or merging character channels—into one unified output.

Properties

• Input Pins – Number of character input pins to merge (default: 2).

Pins

• Pin [0] through Pin [n − 1] – Inputs for character data; the number of pins is defined by the Input Pins property.
• Out – Outputs the merged character from whichever input logic applies.
