7 Using the MAKE/TRIGGER system

MAKE/TRIG. terminal is configured as follows. You can assign a function to each pin terminal in “REMOTE
SETTING” (☞ “PORT F1” – “PORT F6” on page 13).
Pin No. Pin name Pin No. Pin name
1PORT F1 5PORT F5
2PORT F2 6PORT F6
3PORT F3 7External control*3
4PORT F4 8GND
*3 The external control (the 7th pin terminal) must be controlled by the MAKE (make contact) system.
To assign the functions to the pin terminals
For the operation procedure, see page 7.
1 Select “REMOTE SETTING” on the set-up menu.
2 Set “PARA REMO SEL” to “SET.”
3 Select a pin name (“PORT F1” – “PORT F6”) which you want to assign a function to, then select the function
you want to assign.
• For selectable functions, see the tables below.
Functions controlled by MAKE/TRIGGER system
*4 DT-V24L1D and DT-V20L1D only
*5 Must be controlled with the TRIGGER system.
*6 Selects which functions in “AREA MARKER” are activated, “R-” items or non-“R-” items (☞ page 10).
*7 Displays the information shown when INPUT SELECT button of the current input is pressed (☞ “About the Status Display” on
page 7). While controlling with MAKE (make contact) system, the information is displayed only at the moment of
short-circuiting.
NOTE
• You cannot assign the same function to different pin terminals.
• The TRIGGER system switches each function by short-circuiting the pin terminal for about 1 second and opening it.
External Control

7 About the external control

This monitor has three external control terminals.
• MAKE/TRIG. terminal : The following external control systems are available.
(1) MAKE (make contact system) : Controls the function by short-circuiting the corresponding pin terminal to
the GND pin terminal, or disconnecting (opening) it (☞ the right).
(2) TRIGGER (trigger system) : Controls the function by inputting the pulse signal instantaneously to the
corresponding pin terminal (☞ the right).
• RS-232C terminal : Controls the monitor with RS-232C system. (☞ “Using the serial communication”
on page 15)
• RS-485 terminals : Controls the monitor with RS-485 system. (☞ “Using the serial communication” on
page 15)
Set the following items of “REMOTE SETTING” in set-up menu according to the external control terminal and
control system you use (☞ page 13).
