ID-AL ChronoPlayer - Quick Start Guide V1.0
3 Connection of the Inputs
The 8 inputs are used to generate events. Triggering devices can be
connected to these inputs (e.g.: push-button, presence sensor, relay, PLC,
SensoPad). These devices must behave like open or closed contacts
between an input and the ground of the player, the activation being triggered
by a closed contact. The activation states (0 for open or 1 for closed) of all the
inputs are combined to form a binary code identifying the generated event:

A command is assigned to each event. By default, the
INPUTxxx
event resulting from the
xxx
combination value
of the inputs is associated with the launch of the playback of the
xxx
folder. The
config.txt
file allows to change
the commands assigned to the 15 first combinations.
Up to 8 combinations (001, 002, 004, 008, 016, 032, 064, 128), the triggering devices can be directly connected to
the inputs. Beyond, a circuit based on diodes can be used:
