The value and unit of the output signal at port O. The first edit box represents the signal value. You can specify both positive and negative values.

The second combo box represents the unit of the output signal. By default, the unit is 1 (unitless). You can select a unit from the drop-down list or type the desired unit name, such as rpm, or a valid expression, such as rad/s.
