After specifying a trigger source, the Trigger panel shows the parameters that can be configured.
Parameter Trigger Source Description
Source All
Selects the trigger source (Time, Encoder, External Input, or
Software).
Frame Rate Time
Controls the frame rate. Select Max Speed from the drop-
down to lock to the maximum frame rate. Fractional values are
supported. For example, 0.1 can be entered to run at 1 frame
every 10 seconds.
Gate on External Input Time, Encoder External input can be used to enable or disable profiling in a
sensor. When this option is enabled, the sensor will respond to
time or encoder triggers only when the external input is
asserted.
This setting is not displayed when Surface Generation is set
to Fixed Length, Variable Length, or Rotational (see on
page 100).
See See Digital Inputs on page 410 for more information on
connecting external input to Gocator sensors.
Behavior Encoder Specifies how the Gocator sensor is triggered when the target
moves. Can be Track Backward, Ignore Backward, or Bi-
Directional. See Triggers on page 75 for more information on
these behaviors.
Spacing Encoder Specifies the distance between triggers (mm). Internally the
Gocator sensor rounds the spacing to a multiple of the encoder
resolution.
Units External Input, Software Specifies whether the trigger delay, output delay, and output
scheduled command operate in the time or the encoder
domain. The unit is implicitly set to microseconds with Time
trigger source, and millimeters with Encoder trigger source.
