TTrig
12C100000
TTrig is a measurement interval switch for the TriOS G2 sensors OPUS and NICO. Due to its low standby power
(<1mW),itisideallysuitedforoperationwithabatteryaspowersupply.Itisdesignedtominimizeenergyconsumptionbetween
measurements.
TheTTrig features an additional connection for commissioning and controlling a wiper (W55).
Remote or self-sucient measuring stations can thus be operated maintenance-free for several months.
An RJ-45 Ethernet interface provides access to the sensor's G2 web interface for downloading the measurement data from the
data logger with a notebook.

Short Guide
Compatibility
TheTTrig can only be used with one sensor and one wiper at the same time and can only be used for sensors with integrated
data logger (OPUS, NICO).
Scope of Delivery
TTrig
Connections
Cable
bushing M8 connection M12 connection
Control panel
2 rotary encoders for setting measurement interval and delay
5 buttons with the following functions:

Sensor connection and wiper connection
The sensor must then be connected to the M12 socket and optionally a wiper to the M8 socket.The following table shows the
conguration options.
Function test

of the wiper is visible by its movement. For OPUS it is recommended to download the data logger and check the completeness
of the measurements.
Conguration of automatic measurement
The measurement interval is set on site on theTTrig (rotary encoder "1. INTERVAL"). In addition, a start delay (rotary encoder "2.
DELAY") can be activated. The following table shows the conguration options.

Start of automatic measurement
Pressing the start button ("3. START") starts the automatic measurement.This function of the start button is only available again
after a reset or disconnection of the power supply.
The following procedure should be observed after the start of the automatic measurement:
Sequence of the rst measurement after activation by pressing the start button.
START LED WIPER LED SENSOR LED Function
1. Flashes quickly OFF OFF Sensor initialisation
2. Flashes quickly ON OFF Wiper cleans
3. Flashes quickly OFF ON Sensor boots
4.* Flashes every 20 s OFF Flashes 3 x fast Measurement
5. Flashes every 20 s OFF ON Data backup
6. Flashes every 20 s OFF OFF Automatic measurement running
During active automatic measurement, the start LED lights up once every 20 seconds.
* If instead the yellow service LED ashes every 20 s, please refer to the section Troubleshooting/Sensor not
found.
Data storage and retrieval
All measurement data is only stored on the internal 2GB SD card of the sensor.
A notebook can be connected via an RJ-45 socket on theTTrig so that the stored measurement data can be downloaded via the
web interface. Press the "Service" button on theTTrig to supply the sensor with power for the entire period. In service mode the
automatic measurements are interrupted, "Skipped" is entered in the comment line of the next measurement.
Establishing a connection to the sensor
Step 1 Connect a notebook/PC to theTTrig via the RJ-45 socket.
Step 2 Press the "Service" button on theTTrig to activate the service mode.
Step3 Open a web browser. The following URL establishes the connection to your sensor: http://192.168.77.1/ (see also
manual of the respective sensor)
Comments
Each record has a comment function with four comment lines.
They can be found in the web interface under the menu "Measurement" "Settings".
Lines 1 and 2 are freely available to the user.
Lines 3 and 4 are overwritten byTTrig.
The settings of the rotary encoders are queried once. Later adjustment has no eect on the measur-
ing intervals or the delay!

In comment line 3 each measurement is assigned a consecutive number.
Failed measurements, e.g. due to service or power fail, are internally incremented inTTrig.
In this case, the number of the subsequent measurement is not consecutive.

Comment line 4 contains additional event information suchas timeout, power fail, etc.
In the case of omitted measurements, their number can be read at "EVENT-SKIPPED #".
TTrig Reset
Reset resets theTTrig to its initial position.
Automatic measurement is stopped and the numbering of the measurements is reset to 1.
1. INTERVAL and 2. DELAY can now be recongured. By pressing the start button theTTrig takes over the settings of the rotary
encoders into the new automatic measurement.
All stored data of the sensor is retained!
If the web interface is also not available, please contact us at [email protected].

of the power supply.
The start button can be used to trigger a manual check of the voltage source.
TheTTrig resumes automatic measurement when sucient power is available.
Sensor not found:
Check the connector and the cable of the sensor. Carry out a reset and press the start button again after one minute.
Sensor detected Measurements are carried out fully automatically.
Sensor not detected Connect to the G2 interface of the sensor and check the settings of the serial interface under the menu
"Peripherals".
