When you activate the trigger, the next incoming trigger event switches "Path A". Each
following trigger event toggles from the currently switched path to the other path.
Note:
After the 2
nd
trigger event, your relays are not necessarily in the same state as
before the 1
st
trigger event. For example, consider a relay that is originally
deactiva-
ted
. If "Path A" activates it, but "Path B" does not include this relay, it is therefore not
deactivated. Hence, the relay remains
activated
after the 2
nd
trigger event, before
"Path A" is switched again.
Remote command:
Sequenced ← Trigger Type
Allows triggering 3 to 16 paths in a given sequence.
For configuring the sequenced trigger, first select a "Seq. Length", where the sequence
length
n
=
3
to
16. The dialog displays n path selection boxes, labeled "Path 00" for the
1
st
path up to "Path (n-1)" for the n
th
path.
Select a path in each path selection box.
Activation:
When you activate the trigger, the next trigger event ("Manual Trigger" or incoming trig-
ger event at the [TRIGGER A] BNC connector) switches the 1
st
path ("Path 00"). Each
following trigger event switches the next path in the sequential order up to the n
th
path
("Path (n-1)"). The next trigger event recommences with the 1
st
path.
At any time, you can reset the trigger sequence to the 1
st
path. To do so, click
"Sequence Reset" or send a reset event to the[TRIGGER B] BNC connector.
Note:
If a reset is the first trigger event for the sequenced trigger, the following trigger
event has no effect (it does not switch any path), but it is counted.
Note:
After the last trigger event in the sequence, your relays are not necessarily in the
same state as before the 1
st
trigger event. For example, consider a relay that is origi-
nally
deactivated
. If the 1
st
path activates it, but all other paths do not include this
relay, it is therefore not deactivated. Hence, the relay remains
activated
after the last
trigger event, before the 1
st
path is switched again.

16 addresses, you can use this trigger type to address up to 16 paths directly.
For configuring the addressed trigger, first select an "Address Count", where the

st
path up to "Path (n-1)" for the n
