UNDERSTANDING THE
AUX OUT INDICATOR
(AOI)
The Aux Out Indicator on the main screen is used to convey if
the Aux Out parameter in the Hardware menu (AUX OUT) is
switched on or off.
There are two possible conditions that the SOI can indicate:
The Trigger Detection Indicator on the main screen is used to
convey both the method of trigger detection in use and the
current state of the trigger.
From the factory the Ego8 will have the opto sensor enabled.
The micro-switch option can be selected by referring to the
HARDWARE Menu (see page 48).
There are seven possible conditions that the TDI can indicate:
MICRO-SWITCH SELECTED,
NOT ACTUATED
The Ego8 is configured to use the micro-switch
to detect trigger pulls. The micro-switch is not
currently actuated, i.e. the trigger is released
OPTO SENSOR SELECTED,
WITHIN BAND
The Ego8 is configured to use the opto sensor to
detect trigger pulls. The opto sensor is currently
reading somewhere between the BAND LO and
BAND HI values, i.e. the trigger is half depressed.
MICRO-SWITCH SELECTED,
ACTUATED
The Ego8 is configured to use the micro-switch to
detect trigger pulls. The micro-switch is currently
actuated, i.e. the trigger is pulled.
OPTO SENSOR SELECTED,
ABOVE BAND HI
The Ego8 is configured to use the opto sensor to
detect trigger pulls. The opto sensor is currently
reading above the BAND HI value but below 100%,
i.e. the trigger has passed the activation point.
OPTO SENSOR SELECTED,
0% SIGNAL
The Ego8 is configured to use the opto sensor to
detect trigger pulls. The opto sensor is currently
reading 0%, i.e. the trigger is fully released.
OPTO SENSOR SELECTED,
100% SIGNAL
The Ego8 is configured to use the opto sensor to
detect trigger pulls. The opto sensor is currently
reading 100%, i.e. the trigger is fully depressed.
OPTO SENSOR SELECTED,
BELOW BAND LO
The Ego8 is configured to use the opto sensor to
detect trigger pulls. The opto sensor is currently
reading below the BAND LO value but above 0%,
i.e the trigger is slightly depressed.
UNDERSTANDING THE
TRIGGER DETECTION
INDICATOR (TDI)
AUX OUT ENABLED
The Aux Out parameter is enabled. Each time the
circuit board detects a valid trigger pull a signal will
be sent to the AUX connector on the circuit board
and to an expansion board (iftted).
AUX OUT DISABLED
The Aux Out parameter is disabled. No signal will
be sent to either the AUX connector on the circuit
board or to an expansion board (if fitted).
