Trigger condition

Choose the trigger condition for the selected trigger channel. You can set a different trigger condition for each channel. By selecting the trigger channels you indicate which channel or channels are to be used for triggering.

  • <none>
    Trigger is deactivated. If you choose this channel as the trigger channel, continuous recording occurs. This channel is not taken into account when combining trigger channels (AND/OR).
  • Rising Edge
    Triggers at the intersection with the trigger threshold from bottom to top
  • Falling Edge
    Triggers at the intersection with the trigger threshold from top to bottom
  • < Threshold
    Triggers when below the trigger threshold
  • = Threshold
    Triggers when equal to the trigger threshold. This setting is only useful for PLC operands with discrete values.
  • > Threshold
    Triggers when the trigger threshold is exceeded
  • Range
    Triggers when above the upper threshold or below the lower trigger threshold. Enter a lower and an upper trigger threshold in the form <lower threshold> ... <upper threshold>.

The <,=,> threshold trigger conditions are best used with combined trigger conditions.
