Overview
The Smart Vision Light connects to 24VDC power supply and then requires a trigger signal. The Smart Vision Light will
illuminate for the duration of the strobe/trigger pulse. By using the high speed output HS-OUT1 this can easily be
accomplished.
The OverDrive™series of lights are strobe only. The OverDrive™series of lights can NOT be run in constant “on”
mode. OverDrive series begin with OD in part numbers. OverDrive lights include ODS30, ODS75, ODR80, ODR130
and ODL300.
Simply connect the Smart Vision Light to 24VDC and then connect the trigger signal to the In-Sight 5000 HS-OUT1
using the attached connection diagrams. Set High Speed Output # 1 to Strobe and the Smart Vision Light will
illuminate for the duration of the exposure of the image acquisition.
