Figure 397: Mark Trigger Dialog

Trigger: When pressing Mark - Trigger, the trigger dialog on the left will appear.

When starting the Trigger Mode, the job is sent to the buffer of the card to prepare the marking. If only a selection of the entities should be marked, you can select these entities and enable Mark Selected.

To start the marking, the external trigger (Opto_In_0 for USC-cards) can be pressed while the dialog is open. Since the job is already stored on the buffer in this mode, the marking can start more quickly than if it is started via the Mark Dialog.

The trigger dialog is open until either the external stop (Opto_In_1 for USC-cards), the STOP button of the dialog, or a stop key is pressed. If a marking process is currently active, these actions will also stop the current marking process.

Status Outputs regarding the trigger mode can be chosen via Settings - System - I/O.

note

If not done automatically, the trigger needs to be activated in Settings - System - Optic.
