Output command. Commands that schedule an event in the past will be ignored. An encoder value is in
the future if the value will be reached by moving in the forward direction (the direction that encoder
calibration was performed in).
To output an exposure signal:
1. Go to the Output page.
2. Click Digital 1 or Digital 2 in the Output panel.
3. Set Trigger Event to Exposure Begin or Exposure End.
4. Set the Pulse Width option.
The pulse width determines the duration of the digital output pulse, in microseconds.
To output an alignment signal:
1. Go to the Output page.
2. Click Digital 1 or Digital 2 in the Output panel.
3. Set Trigger Event to Alignment.
The digital output state is High if the sensor is aligned, and Low if not aligned. Whether the sensor is
running does not affect the output.
To respond to exposure begin/end:
1. Go to the Output page.
2. Click Digital 1 or Digital 2 in the Output panel.
3. Set Trigger Event to Exposure Begin or Exposure End.
Analog Output
Gocator sensors can convert a measurement result or software request to an analog output. Each
sensor supports one analog output channel.
Gocator 2500 series sensors do not support analog output.
See Analog Output on page 771 for information on wiring analog output to an external device.
