How to build a trigger?

[ac82]

Hi everyone,

I'd like to have a trigger signal for my Basler cameralink aca2000-340km...I have the PCIe1433 with the SMB connector. How can I make a simple external trigger?

Or is it possible to use a command by keyboard as trigger to start the acquisition?

thank you!

Hey ac82,

You should be able to use events structures to issue a keyboard or mouse command to acquire your images.

I believe you may have a service request open with me in tech support.  Did the modified code help?

Hi Ben,

yes, this post was more about external triggering I was thinking about yesterday, but your mod on the code is exactly what I wanted.

I just replay to you after testing the code. It works but now there is always a 15 seconds delay between the "Acquire Images?" and the real acquisition... I think you will receive my reply soon.

Thank you very much for all your help!
