Connecting and Configuring External Lights
The Model 1460 I/O Expansion Module provides light power output for 2 CCS lights. Light
power input is limited to 12 or 24VDC, which must be connected at the LIGHT POWER input
connector.
When HSOUT 1 is enabled in the discrete output dialog as Light Control, the input light
power will be output to both light connectors at the start of acquisition for a duration equal to
the set exposure time.
When the HSOUT 1 output is set to Light Control, the HSOUT 1 output is available as a
standard output.
2.7.1 Connecting External Lights
The model 1460 I/O Expansion Module provides two external light connections. When 12 or
24VDC is input at the Light Power Input connector and the module is configured for external
lighting, the applied voltage will be output to the light for the duration of the exposure.
1.
Connect the light power source (12 or 24VDC) to the Light Power input.
2.
Using the light power cable, connect the Light Power Output (0 or 1) to the light source.
2.7.2 Configuring the External Lights
The Light Control is configured in the Discrete Output Dialog.
1.
Open the Discrete Output dialog.
2.
Verify that I/O Expansion Module is selected as the device.
3.
For HSOUT 1 (Line 9), set the Type to Light Control (1460 Only).
4.
Set the Details to Rising Edge or Falling Edge as required.
Caution: The Light power supply must be isolated or share a common negative ground
with the Camera power supply.
