SetBlockInput(boolean)

Description

The SetBlockInput function is an internal function used during the system tests. It stops input from USB-connected keyboards and mouse. The built-in keyboard on some models is internally connected using a USB connection, which is also blocked by this function. The block affects the station where the function is executed.

	Important:
	Should the station be blocked and cannot be unblocked using a new Lua command, then pressing the keyboard keys A, S, D, and F simultaneously unblock the input again.

Arguments

• Boolean:
  The boolean indicates if the stations' input should be blocked or unblocked.
  • true (or 1): The station input is blocked.
  • false (or 0): The station input is unblocked.

Return

This function does not return anything.

Example

This example blocks mouse and keyboard input for 10 seconds:

return function()
    -- Set a variable for yield time in seconds
    yieldTime = 10
    -- Set the block to true
    SetBlockInput(true)
    -- Wait the [yieldtime]
    coroutine.yield(yieldTime)
    -- Unblock the station
    SetBlockInput(false)
end
