• Bad Image Event: The task is queued when an error is generated during image acquisition. This can
include DSL communication errors, CRC errors, and out-of-buffer-space errors, among others. This
event provides an additional input:
• Image In Event: The task is queued when an image has been acquired and is ready for processing by
the Impact device. This is the default for the first task added when a program is created. Only one task
in a program should use this trigger event type. This event provides additional inputs.
• Camera Button Event: The task is queued when the button on the camera case is pressed. (This option
is available only on certain camera models.)
• Image Trigger Event FE and RE: The task is queued by both the rising and falling edges of a hardware
trigger on the Impact device’s Camera trigger input. (This option does not appear for M-Series proces-
sors or cameras.)
• Image Trigger Event FE: The task is queued by the falling edge of a hardware trigger on the Impact
device’s Camera trigger input. (This option does not appear for M-Series processors or cameras.)
• Image Trigger Event RE: The task is queued by the rising edge of a hardware trigger on the Impact
device’s Camera trigger input. (This option does not appear for M-Series processors or cameras.)
• Input Event FE and RE: The task is queued by both the rising and falling edges of a hardware trigger
on the Impact device’s Event input.
• Input Event FE: The task is queued by the falling edge of a hardware trigger on the Impact device’s
Event input. (Note: the M-Series Processor I/O does not signal the FE Input Event.)
• Input Event RE: The task is queued by the rising edge of a hardware trigger on the Impact device’s
Event input. (Note: the M-Series Processor I/O signals only the RE Input Event.)
• Online Event: When the Impact device goes Online, the task is immediately queued to run.
• Offline Event: When the Impact device goes Offline, the task is immediately queued to run.
