How to Use the External Control
7 About the External Control
The Monitor has the MAKE/TRIGGER terminal, which allows you to control the monitor by the MAKE (make
contact) or TRIG. (trigger) system selected in the function setting.
MAKE (make contact) system: Controls the function by short-circuiting the corresponding pin terminal to the
GND pin terminal, or disconnecting (opening) it.
TRIG. (trigger) system: Controls the function by inputting the pulse signal instantaneously to the
corresponding pin terminal.
* Select “MAKE” or “TRIG.” from “REMOTE SYSTEM” in SET-UP MENU.
☞ “REMOTE SYSTEM” on page 14
NOTES:
• The external control has priority over operations using front panel buttons or menu functions of the monitor.
• When using the make contact system, you cannot use the functions which are applied to the MAKE/TRIGGER terminal
operating the front panel buttons or the menu of the monitor. (When using the trigger system you can also use those
functions operating the monitor directly.)
