IMU hardware trigger #24

Open tiralonghipol opened 6 years ago

tiralonghipol commented 6 years ago

Hi. I was planning to by this sensor, and I have a question: Should a purchase the serial, the usb or both cables, in order to get access to hardware triggering?

Thanks

I'm not sure whether the cables they sell expose the sync in/out pins, we built our own cables for our application. You can email VectorNav at support@vectornav.com and ask them directly about this.

Maybe you could try the VN-C100-0610. VN-100 Rugged pigtail Cable

To access the sync-out I used the standard USB cable that came with the VN100 rugged and built a short extension cable assembly to tap into pins 4 and 5 for the sync-out signal. The parts I used:;
