The main *rate* parameter (50 Hz by default) determines how fast the
outside ROS loop runs. The default should suffice in most cases. In
any event, it should be at least as fast as your fastest sensor rate
(defined below).

The *sensorstate\_rate* determines how often to publish an aggregated

topic and rate.

The four most important parameters are *pin*, *type*, *rate* and *direction*.
The *rate* defines how many times per second you want to poll that
sensor. For example, a voltage sensor might only be polled once a
second (or even once every 2 seconds: rate=0.5), whereas a sonar
sensor might be polled at 20 times per second. The type must be one

sensor might be polled at 20 times per second. The *type* must be one
of those listed (case sensitive!). The default *direction* is input so
to define an output pin, set the direction explicitly to output. In
the example above, the Arduino LED (pin 13) will be blinked on and off
at a rate of 2 times per second.
