digital camera ABB commnication

Is it possible to send command to a normal digital camera using RobotStudio? All I need is to automatically trigger the shutter when the robot arm is in desired position.

If your digital camera has a trigger input, you can wire it to a discrete output from the robot controller i/o.

Make sure the voltages are compatible. If they are not (for example, the controller i/o may be 24vdc and the camera trigger may be 12vdc) then use an isolation stage, like opto-isolator is a good choice.

Also pay attention to the camera’s trigger-state. It is common for the trigger to operate in different modes, depending on camera settings.

If the trigger is rising edge active, the one example of RAPID would be; Reset Camera_Trigger; PulseDo \High \PLength:=.03, Camera_Trigger;

Thanks for your comments. I will it a try.
