Trigger Connections
The Axiom supports three trigger modes: hardware, software, and continuous.
When using hardware trigger, one or more input signals “trigger” the reader.
Software trigger is accomplished by sending a specific ASCII message via serial
or network communications. Continuous trigger requires no external trigger.
When a hardware trigger (i.e., package detector) is required, Accu-Sort’s retro-
reflective photoeye (PN 100020569) is recommended.

Common Common
If your application uses a photoeye other than the one available from Accu-
Sort, follow the TRIGGER wiring table to assure proper wiring. The trigger must
be able to operate using the +24V DC source (24V) and not draw more than
100mA. The trigger input must be able to sink (or source) 10mA at +24V DC.
USEFUL TIP
:
To confirm the Trigger photoeye is functioning properly, watch
the Trigger LED while the photoeye’s beam is blocked.
(See Chapter 5 for
details.)
The Accu-Sort photoeye also includes a status LED.
Multiple Readers
When an application incorporates multiple readers wire
the trigger photoeye to the Axiom Controller.
