Action Descriptions

Output Opto-Couplers

The opto-coupler number to activate can be specified as well as the level
(or state) required for this output. Select the state by clicking the opto-
coupler symbol. If the Pulse parameter is selected, the pulse duration can
be set in increments of 50 msec between 50 and 2,147,483,647 msec.
This allows pulses up to 24.8 days in duration. If Repeated Pulse is
selected, the pulse will repeat with a 50% duty cycle until deactivated.

Output Relay

The relay number to activate can be specified as well as the level (or
state) required for this output. You can select the state by clicking the
relay symbol. Pulsed behavior for the relays is equivalent to the pulsed
behavior of the opto-coupled outputs.

NOTE:

The advanced GPIO features enabled in the printer allow handling all
eight opto-coupler outputs as well as the relays through a Data Field.

See “Data Fields” on page 241. This gives the single outputs a large
number of output combinations that can be used to initialize external
actions.
