Trigger Out
The QM trigger output gives a signal to the VCR to record the current image
immediately because the multiplexer is switching to the next camera in the sequence.
The following figure showed the relation between the output pulse and the input camera.
To activate that option you need to make sure that “EXT Trigger” is on OFF posi-
tion. For turning that OFF repeat step 1 through 5 again and make sure to select “OFF”
in step number 3 instead of “ON”.
After making the connection shown in Figure 12 and turning “ OFF” the EXT Trigger
you can now control the VCR recording speed via QM.
