Summary
Generates timed pulse signals for triggering multiple sensors such as ultrasonic rangers.
Description
The **Multi-Sensor Pulse Start** component is designed to control one or more sensors (e.g., **Ultrasonic Ranger (Ping)**) by generating precise start pulses. When the **Start** pin is triggered, a pulse of length defined by **Pulse Time** is output, followed by a pause defined by **Pause Time** before the next trigger is accepted. This ensures reliable sensor activation and avoids signal overlap.

Properties
- Enabled – Enables or disables the component.
- Pause Time (mS, default 100) – Minimum pause time between pulses.
- Pulse Time (uS, default 2) – Duration of the output pulse.
- Elements – Allows adding sensor elements such as **Ultrasonic Ranger (Ping)**.
Pins
Input Pins
- Start (digital) – Trigger input for generating a sensor pulse.
- Clock (clock) – Timing reference input.
Output Pins
- (Provided by added sensor elements, e.g., Ultrasonic Ranger response pins.)*
