Hello All,

I have one thing i can not find out on the ext board:

I like to use a input on the ext board to activate a output.

Now i see that i can only use it as a switch ON and OFF

i like to use it as a trigger only!

Please advise how i must setup this?

Thanks

I don't know if I understood the question correctly, but you can set the following in the settings/shortcuts, for example.

Yes I did but I don’t want to use it as a switch for on and off.

I must go on and directly off!?

Can you explain more in detail your type of use? For what you would like to use it? On or OFF of external device?

Yes i like to have a sound signal every time my 3D probe touching! so wit the EXt i dont kklnow how to trigger this. The relais can only switch on and of...!??

Perhaps you could use beep() command in measuring script?

Maybe this will help.

I also have a beep when the Probe triggers.
But my probes are connected to pin 1 and 2 of the input board.
I have the following commands in expr.txt.
if(_hw_input_num|1 == 1, exec(expr,beep(3000, 0.02, 1)));
if(_hw_input_num|2 == 1, exec(expr,beep(3000, 0.02, 1)));

if i remember correctly i also had to lower the "Settings/User Interface/Refresh Rate" to 25ms
to reliably trigger the beep.
