35 CEND 0: Counter 0 end output
CEND 1: Counter 1 end output
CEND 2: Counter 2 end output
CEND 3: Counter 3 end output / GAP OUT: Date gap output
Each output turns ON when the counting value of the corresponding counter No. has reached to the end
value.
The counter end output remains turned ON with the shutter open until the next marking trigger is input.
When you close the shutter, the counter end output turns OFF.
For the terminal No. 35, select its operation from “Counter 3 end output” or “Date gap output” in the
environment settings. The default setting is “Counter 3 end output”.
When “Date gap output” is selected for terminal No. 35, this terminal turns ON when the date of the
internal clock has changed (passed the midnight) while the input TIME HOLD (No. 23) is ON. This is the
output to notify you that the laser marker is marking the different date from that of the internal clock while
TIME HOLD (No. 23) is turned ON.
Reference
• Common Counter 4 to 7 have no counter end output function.
• The counter does not operate at test marking.
• Counting is activated from the initial value again when the counter reaches to the end value.
• Only the counter input with the character string is available.
• When “Step & Repeat counter at each step” function is set, counter end output is invalid.
36 SET OK: Set OK output
The output turns ON when the setting has completed by the input of SET IN (No. 2).
Output ON when number inputs such as file No. and counter reset are set. This is one-shot output.
Reference
• SET OK is a response to SET IN. To verify if the laser marker has entered into the marking ready state (trigger input
acceptance state), check by READY (B4).
• Set the output time of the one-shot duration on the environment setting screen. The setting range is 2 to 510 ms. The
initial setting value is 40 ms. One-shot output time has a small margin of error for the setting value.
