Issue

Where do I connect the wires for automatically start and stop measurements in Sensoft Vision?

 

Hardware connection

You can use Digital Inputs (DI) to start and stop measurements. The required DI signal is a dc signal that goes to +24 V for starting the measurement and returns to ground when you want to stop the measurement. Connect the wires to the following pins of connector DI on the SenSystem Network:

  • Pin 5: Start/Stop signal
  • Pin 26: Ground

The Input configuration is by default Emitter-Follower.

Note that you can still start/stop measurements manually by clicking the Start/Stop button in Sensoft Vision.

The connector that goes into connector DI of the SenSystem Network is a 37 pin male D-SUB connector. We offer a set with cable and screwable break-out.
