INSTANTIABLE COMPONENTS — General

All instantiable components can be loaded in two manners

Using loadrt with or without count= | names= parameters as per legacy components
Using newinst, which names the instance and allows further parameters and arguments
primarily pincount= which can set the number of pins created for that instance (where applicable)

NAME

gearchangev2 — Select from one two speed ranges

SYNOPSIS

The output will be a value scaled for the selected gear, and clamped to the min/max values for that gear. The scale of gear 1 is assumed to be 1, so the output device scale should be chosen accordingly. The scale of gear 2 is relative to gear 1, so if gear 2 runs the spindle 2.5 times as fast as gear 1, scale2 should be set to 2.5.
