- The"cycle trigger" of the Camera and Illumination controller
- The"cycle sequence trigger" of the Camera and Illumination controller

| I/O Toolbox tools | The I/O Toolbox is a configurable interconnection of tools that generates events (usually triggers) from input lines. The composition of the toolset is product- and firmware-dependent.- Line Input tool (LIN): Edge detector delivering events on rising or falling edges of any selected input line.
- Quadrature Decoder tool (QDC): A composite tool including:
- A quadrature edge detector delivering events on selected transitions of selected pairs of input lines.
- An optional backward motion compensator for clean line-scan image acquisition when the motion is unstable.
- A 32-bit up/down counter for delivering a position value.
- Divider tool (DIV): to generate an event every nth input events from any I/O toolbox event source.
- Delay tool (DEL): to delay up to 16 events from one or two I/O toolbox event sources, by a programmable time or number of motion encoder ticks (any QDC events).
