Activity of Receiver | Webel IT Australia

An AcceptEventAction with the Trigger::port set to be iKeypad:I_Keypad unmarshalls a S_Digit signal to extract the digit:Integer. It then sends this to the append operation of its number:Number.

The number:Number also provides the accumulated digits so far as a String. This String is printed prefixed with the id of the receiver (so we can see which one was connected). And the String is then sent out via the oDisplay:~I_Display Port.

Notes

[COMPLICATION]{INFORMATIVE} UML/SysML: When sending a Signal (message) via a Port the 'target' is the owner of the Port through which the message will be sent, it is NOT the final recipient! So the 'target' is essentially the "sender"!
