How to use a "Global Variable" in the "Output Setup"

Pyroblast

Hi guys,

Like the title says, I would like to know if somebody can tell me how can I use a global variable in the output setup through the calculator.

For example, I want to measure the riseTime but I want to measure it for different supply voltages. So I was wondering if it is possible to substitute the voltage range interval in the riseTime option in the calculator by some expression that allows me to use the vdd global variable.

Regards.

    Use VAR("vdd") as part of your expression to access the variable.
