Metadata
Description
In SAFE you can output metadata with the Metadata block. It will output a specific metadata value each time the value changes. This can be useful for
other block or for visualisation. In order to use the block you must have created a metadata field. Note that it will output every time the value changes.
For more controlled outputs look for the metadata output in Measurement.
Output
The output is 1x1 metadata value.
