Setting The Measurement Trigger - Omron FQ - SHORT Manual

7-2 Setting the Measurement Trigger

The measurement trigger can be chosen from the following two types:
• One-shot measurement: One measurement is performed for each external trigger.
• Continuous measurement: Measurements are performed continuously.
Performing One Measurement for Each External Trigger
A measurement trigger is input as the TRIG signal from a proximity sensor, PLC, or other external device.
One measurement is performed when the TRIG signal turns ON.
