Selecting Discrete I/O Parameters

After configuring a toolset and selecting acquisition parameters, your next
step is to pick

Discrete I/O

in the

Editors

menu. You can then select and

configure the discrete inputs and outputs to be used in your application.

When you pick

Discrete I/O

, the

Discrete I/O Editor

panel appears, as

shown in the example in Figure 2.7, provided that you have added a discrete
I/O file name in the

Config Files

panel, as noted on page 2–3.

Figure 2.7 Example: The Discrete I/O Editor Panel

The purpose of the

Discrete I/O Editor

panel is to configure the trigger

inputs and assign functions to the outputs as required for a particular
application. Using this panel, you can assign signals to the trigger inputs and
specify the minimum trigger signal pulse duration, and you can assign a
specific function to each output, such as toolset failure, tool warning, and so
on. When you finish, picking the

button returns to the main menu bar.
