Description: The Portable Wireless Trigger (PWT) is an easy-to-use and convenient method for the operator to trigger 1 to 4 remotely located high speed cameras or other instruments. The PWT consists of wireless Transmitter and Receiver(s) that consist of a transmitter located either near the event or near the operator, that when triggered emits a low power, wireless trigger signal which is received by one or more receivers connected to the standard trigger inputs of the instrumentation.

Typical Useage:
Automated Triggering: Typically the Transmitter is located close to the event. A short trigger line or a TTL signal line is connected between the event and the Transmitter. The Receiver(s) are located at a remote location from the event near the instrument(s) and connected to the external trigger inputs of the instrument(s). When the trigger signal is received at the Transmitter it sends a trigger signal to the Receiver(s) that relay the trigger signal to the instrument(s).
Manual Triggering: Typically the Transmitter is located close to or with the Operator. A push button trigger switch is attached to the Transmitter. The Receiver(s) are located at a remote location from the Operator near the instrument(s) and connected to the external trigger inputs of the instrument(s). When the Operator pushes the push button trigger switch the Transmitter sends a trigger signal to the Receiver(s) that relay the trigger signal to the instrument(s).
