Digital Outputs
Gocators can convert measurement decisions or software commands to digital output pulses, which can
then be used to output to a PLC or control external devices, such as indicator lights or air ejectors.
Gocator’s digital output can also act as a measurement valid signal to allow external devices to
synchronize to the timing at which measurements results are output. In this mode, Gocator outputs a
digital pulse when a measurement result is ready at the output stage of the Gocator.
Each Gocator sensor supports two digital output channels.
To output measurement decisions:
1 Navigate to the Digital Output 0 or Digital 1 Panel. Select Measurement as Event.
2 Specify when to send a digital pulse.
3 Select assert mode and decision sources that should be combined to determine the output.
If multiple decision sources are selected and assert mode is set to pass, the output is activated when all
selected measurement decisions pass. Conversely, if assert mode is set to false, the output is activated
when any one of the selected measurement decisions is false.
4 Specify a signal type.
The signal type specifies whether the digital output is a continuous signal or a pulsed signal. If the signal is
continuous its state is maintained until the next transition occurs. If the signal is pulsed, user specifies the
pulse width and the delay.
