Hi Kevin,

Here is a simple circuit that also require some initialisation:

I didn't find the digital equivalent of the .IC (initial condition) used in
analog simulations, but if you use the probe tool (arrow on the screen capture)
and click on a node, you toggle its state.

There may be better ways, but this one works (I'm not that fluent in the use of
CircuitMaker...)

(...) Philo, I downloaded the tools, and entered the base schematic for Quad242. Quad242 depends on some initial conditions where 4 of the 5 flops have a value of 1. I've read the docs and not found a way to preset the flops. Any ideas? Your choice (...) (23 years ago, 28-Nov-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)
