4.2 Trigger Input Configuration
Feature
Description
Loop While Trigger Just as its name implies, this feature will make the Dream Player
continue to loop your audio file and play it over and over while the
trigger input is active. If you are using a button as your input, then if
you press and hold the button the file will play continuously.
Release the button and the file will play to the end and stop.
High Trigger
Instead of playing the file when the trigger input is closed, this reverses
the trigger logic so that it plays when open. With a button as an
example of input then the file will play when the button is released
“open” and then stop playback when you press the button “closed”.
This is a great option for motion detectors that have a “normally
closed” signal.
NO Retrigger
This feature is very important for motion sensors. If you set the trigger,
or a trigger comes during playback, the Dream Player will ignore any
inputs during playback. Think of a Motion Sensor where objects are
continually passing in front of it causing the sensor to constantly re-
trigger. In normal playback this means the track would be constantly
fading in and out, stopping playback and instantly starting again.
With No Re-Trigger once the track is triggered it will play until the end
of the track, ignoring all other trigger events, at which point the Player
will look and see if there are other triggers.
Toggle Trigger
Think of having a literal toggle switch, which when in the open
position plays the first track and in the closed position plays the second
track. With the MC that toggle trigger can be applied to any track. To
set which track will play for the different positions, you will name your
track 1a- for a switch in the OFF/Open position, and 1b- for a track in
the ON/closed toggle position.
