External Device Input Triggered Operation Settings

Operation settings for external device output and for external device input triggered events.

Note
The output for an external device can be switched between active and inactive with [External Device Output] of the Camera Viewer (P. 57).
[Operation Mode]
Select whether the output terminals are normally open or closed.
If you set [Normally Open], an active event occurs when the output terminal connection closes, and an inactive event
occurs when the output terminal connection opens.
If you set [Normally Close], an active event occurs when the output terminal connection opens, and an inactive event
occurs when the output terminal connection closes.
[Active Output Format]
Select the output format when the external device output is active.
[Pulse Output Time (sec)]
Enter the output duration time (sec.) when [Active Output Format] is set to [Pulse].
Important
When [Active Output Format] is set to [Pulse] and a timer is used (P. 109), contact output is controlled only once when the timer starts.
