switched to the on position with a positive input, the flash
unit will flash or lit continuously.
2.3.2.1 Using the Trigger Input The trigger input is optically isolated.
The following diagram shows and example of how to use
the optical Isolated input.

When the diode is conducting and thus emitting light, the
software will interpret this as a binary ‘1’.
The input is TTL level compatible.
• input current 6.3 mA < Ion < 10 mA
• Pmax 20 mW
2.3.2.2 Using the Flash and Watchdog Outputs The flash and watchdog outputs are optically isolated .
The following diagram shows an example of how to use
the optical output.

Figure 2-4: Optical isolated flash and watchdog outputs When the flash output is defined as active high and the
software sets the flash as active, then the state of the
output is Ioff, and the transistor will not be conducting.
When the flash output is defined as active low, and the
software sets the flash as active, then the state of the
output is Ion, and the transistor will be conducting.
The watchdog will behave the same as the flash output in
the active high definition.
The inputs and outputs are not protected in any way, so
care must be taken when connecting anything to these
inputs and/or outputs.
All inputs and outputs are TTL level compatible.
• output current 0.9 mA < Ion < 18 mA, Vce max 40 volt
• Pmax 20 mW
