Trigger mode
External trigger One pulse (Figure 35) is emitted each time the leading edge (low to high
transition) of a trigger signal is detected on one of the external trigger input ports.
The rising edge of the trigger signal must reach the threshold for the detection
voltage level set for the port.

Figure 35 External trigger mode
Burst mode A burst of pulses (Figure 36) at the set repetition rate is emitted each time the
leading edge (low to high transition) of a trigger signal is detected on one of the
external trigger input ports. The rising edge of the trigger signal must reach the
detection threshold level for the port. The number of pulses in the burst is set
using Burst pulses sub-menu and the repetition rate is set using the Frequency
sub-menu.
When the light source senses a positive edge on one of the trig inputs, the light
source emits a specified number of pulses (Burst count) at the specified
repetition rate.
