It is just the same as all other elements which store (remember) values. The last value is read when the design is in processing mode. That mode is always AFTER start of this element and before stop.

Are there several different classes of signals in BioEra? It would be good to understand the underlying mechanisms so that one can know which elements can be connected to which. Thanks P.S. are there any concerns about using undocumented elements such as this one?
