Trigger Inputs; Analog Triggers - DiGidot C4 Extended Manual

After configuring a trigger, click 'SAVE', enter a trigger name and save it. The newly created trigger is
then listed in the 'Triggers' overview.

Trigger inputs

The trigger will be executed when all "if" conditions are fulfilled. Multiple inputs can be selected to
create a wide variety of triggering conditions.
Following inputs can be created or combined:

Analog triggers

Home > Triggers > select '+' to add a trigger > select 'Analog'
The DiGidot C4 Extended has three analog inputs that can be used to control or trigger various
events. Please make sure that the analog inputs are properly connected before you start using them.
Before creating analog triggers, it's advised to calibrate the analog inputs.
Analog input calibration
Go to: Home > Triggers > Click the three dots in the top right blue bar > Calibrate analog
For the analog input calibration it is required that the analog inputs are wired properly to the
incoming analog signal. Also check if the controlling device (if applicable) is powered.
Make sure you are working on the correct device or select the right device from the top selection
bar. Follow these steps to calibrate the analog inputs:
1. Send the maximum control value of analog input 1 (e.g.: turn the 0-10V dimmer up to its
maximum) and press the 'SET MAXIMUM' button.
2. Send the minimum control value of analog input 1 (e.g.: turn the 0-10V dimmer down to its
minimum) and press the 'SET MINIMUM' button.
Repeat these steps for analog inputs 2 and 3 (when they are in use). Use the sliders on the bottom
of this window or enter specific values to manually adjust the analog input ranges.
When all inputs have been calibrated, press 'SAVE'.
Creating analog triggers
There are four different ways to use the analog inputs:
‣ Push button or switch
‣ 0-10V dimmer
‣ 0-10V control signal from an external control system
Potentiometer (50kΩ)
‣
If this..
This menu shows the available input options.
‣ Analog channel: Select the analog channel 1-3 that you want to use for triggering.
‣ Analog type: Select the type of analog trigger. Use a dry contact or analog value.
‣ Event: Define the trigger event/state and optional delay or duration of the event.
