Setting Up GPIO Triggering

To define a pulse width of the signal to trigger a GS20 Leader Module over the input of your choice:
  1. Navigate to the
    Configuration
    screen using the left menu on the
    Home
    screen.
  2. In the top left
    GPIO
    section, select the desired trigger pin (either In 0 or In 1), and click
    Update
    .
  3. Click
    Config
    to edit the
    Trigger Pulse
    and
    Pass/Fail Pulse
    fields.
  4. Enter the desired values and click
    Update
    .
    • Trigger Pulse: specifies the pulse width for the signal that triggers the follower devices.
    • Pass/Fail Pulse: specifies the pulse width for the pass/fail result signal.
    If you configure the same output for GPIO Pass/Fail and as an input for the follower device (for example, trigger input), the trigger input for the follower device takes precedence.
When configuring followers to receive triggers on either Out0 or Out1, updating the trigger input for each follower in the Connectivity Gateway is required. Check your wiring to ensure it matches the GS20 pinout, and determine which pin the follower devices should connect to.
The GS20 Web HMI supports the connection of all followers to one Out pin (up to 16 devices) or split between Out0 and Out1. If you decide to split the followers between outputs, you cannot output the GPIO Pass/Fail result.
