For example, consider the following diagram:
Fig. 5.8 Typical Triggering Set Up
When the move command is received via the USB link, the motor associated with unit
A starts to move by the specified relative distance. Unit A also sends a trigger signal
to Unit B. Unit B has been set to 'Trig In', so on receipt of the trigger from unit A, the
associated motor also starts to move.
Persist Settings to Hardware - The Triggering parameters described earlier can be
stored (persisted) within the unit itself, such that when the unit is next powered up
these settings are applied automatically. This is particularly important when the driver
is being used manually via a joystick, in the absence of a PC and USB link.
To save the settings to hardware, check the ‘Persist Settings to Hardware’ checkbox
before clicking the ‘OK button.
