Latch components

Components include services, folders and other model building blocks associated with a module. You may drag them to a property or wire sheet from a palette. These components capture an input value by using either the component's Clock property or by using the component's Latch action. In either case, latching means setting the value of the latch component’s Out property to whatever the value of the latch component’s In property is at the time that the latch occurs. The framework ignores the value of the latch component In property unless a latch occurs.

Each latch component type has the same properties and function; they vary only to accommodate different point data types
