2 Digital I/O The digital I/O functions on the NI 8254R are accessible through 2 TTL inputs, 10 TTL outputs, 13 isolated inputs, and 4 isolated outputs. You can use input signals as triggers, product selection ports, change detectors, or to read quadrature encoders. Uses for output signals include controlling camera reset and exposure, controlling strobe lighting, outputting inspection results, or communicating with PLCs. You can also define the functions of digital input and output signals

Chapter 2 Digital I/O Trigger Inputs Trigger inputs are available from both TTL inputs and isolated inputs. You can use these trigger inputs to synchronize the NI 8254R with an external event, such as the assertion of a signal generated by a proximity sensor or a PLC, to indicate that an inspection item is passing in front of the camera. The NI 8254R uses this input to initiate a timed pulse that can be used for camera control, lighting control, encoder pulse counting, and result output ti

Chapter 2 Digital I/O When the pulse generator is configured for a particular trigger input, after generating a pulse, it waits for another trigger before generating another pulse. When the pulse generator is configured to immediately generate the pulse on a software start, after generating a pulse, it immediately generates another pulse. If the trigger input is set to Immediate in LabVIEW or using a None status signal in C and Visual Basic, the pulse generation occurs as soon as the pulse

Chapter 2 Digital I/O Pulse Width Pulse width is the amount of time between the first (assertion) edge of a pulse and the second (deassertion) edge. Pulse width is configurable only in microseconds from 1 µs to 4,294,967,295 µs. Trigger Polarity Each pulse generator can be individually configured for rising or falling edge triggering. Even if multiple pulse generators are using the same trigger, each can have different polarities. The following figure shows the output of a pulse generator co

Chapter 2 Digital I/O Trigger Change Detectors The NI 8254R is capable of detecting edges on various trigger lines and latching this information for future retrieval. This feature is useful for high-precision hardware-monitoring of the presence of external events without the need for software polling. You can arm for the detection of a rising edge, falling edge, or both on a supported trigger input line. Supported trigger input lines include TTL Input 0, TTL Input 1, ISO Input 8, ISO Input

Chapter 2 Digital I/O example, an upstream NI 8254R device programmed for part classification might drive the product selection port of a downstream NI 8254R device. Alternatively, a PLC with information about which part is being inspected can drive the product selection port of the NI 8254R. Using ISO Input 5 as a Latch You can configure the product selection port to use ISO Input 5 as a latch. A rising edge on ISO Input 5 can latch the data into a data register on the NI 8254R.
