Trigger Examples
Example: External Input +
Conveyor
External input triggering can be used
to produce a snapshot for
3Dmeasurement.
For example, a photocell can be
connected as an external input to
generate a trigger pulse when a target
object has moved into position.
An external input can also be used to
gate the trigger signals when time or
encoder triggering is used. For
example, a photocell could generate a
series of trigger pulses as long as there
is a target in position.
Example: Software Trigger + Robot
Arm
Software triggering can be used to
produce a snapshot for 3D
measurement.
A software trigger can be used in
systems that use external software to
control the activities of system
components.
