7.4.4 Triggering
7.4.4.1 General
The optoNCDT 1420 measurement input and output is controllable through an external trigger signal or a
command. Triggering affects the analog and digital output.
The measurement value at the time of triggering is
output delayed, see Chap. 6.4 .
- Triggering does not influence the measuring rate resp. the timing so that between the trigger event (level
change) and the start of output always lie 3 1 cycle (Jitter).
- Micro-Epsilon recommends the abdication of data reduction, for example, by sub-sampling when the
triggering is used.
- The multifunctional input is used as external trigger input, see Chap. 5.4.6 .
- Factory setting: no triggering, the sensor starts data transmission right after start-up.
- Pulse duration of the “Trigger in“ signal must be at least 50
µs.
Triggering of measured value acquisition and output have the same time behavior.
