Hello,
We are trying to figure out where the external input triggers are located on the circuit board. We were told, "The external triggers can be provided through header J18, pin 2 (3.3V) and header J12, pin 1 (1.8V)." However, so far we are unable to locate these jumpers on the actual circuit board. As far as we can tell, the actual board and the schematic designs don't really match so we're a bit confused as to where we're supposed to look.
An alternative is to use the software trigger mention in the documentation, but so far we've been unable to locate an API that allows us to invoke the software trigger.
Here's a bit of background on why I'm asking these questions: We have cameras connected to the projector's Sync1 and Sync2 pins to trigger on each image being projected. However, due to the lack of a "Run Once" ability, the projector will automatically loop through its preloaded images until we stop it, which can overwhelm the cameras and/or we end up with too many images. So now we are trying to find workarounds to get the projector to cycle through its preloaded images only once.
This is where the input triggers come in; we're hoping that if we could connect a timing board to these pins, we could then control exactly how many images the projector will cycle through before it stops. Unfortunately we haven't been able to locate these triggers so far.
Does anyone have any advice or can point us to either the pin or how to use the software trigger? And how fast is the software trigger?
Thanks!
