User interface box for synchronization and trigger signals (optional)
The interface box provides connections to the trigger IN and OUT functions accessible in the software
user interface, the synchronization signals and the pixel clock. External devices can be connected to the
LSM via standard BNC cables that are plugged into the user interface box. The box itself is delivered with
the necessary cables to be connected to the user interface on the realtime electronics.

Trigger pulse description:
The pulses are identical to the pulses described for the user interface on the realtime electronics.
The LED lights signal the functionality of the individual plugs. The LED lights can be switched on or off
with the switch
SW
. A LED blinks if a signal changes with a frequency of more than 2 Hz.
For a positive signal shorter than 500 ms, the LED is on for 500 ms. For a negative signal shorter than 500
ms, the signal is switched off for 500 ms.
The LED follows the level of the signals if these are longer than 500 ms. The LEDs react on pulses which
are longer than 30 ns and have a frequency of less than 30 MHz.
