Controlling image capture
Which new sequence mode features are
available?
New features:
•
Repeat one step of a sequence n times where n can be set by the variable
ImageRepeat
in SEQUENCE_PARAM.
•
Define one or two hardware inputs in Input mode field of IO_INP_CTRL as:
– Sequence step input (if two are set as input, they are AND gated) or
– Sequence reset input
Setup mode
The
SetupMode
flag allows you to set up a sequence while capturing images.
Using this flag you get a visual feedback of the settings. Set this flag when set-
ting up the sequence and reset the flag before using the sequence.
I/O controlled sequence stepping mode
The I/O controlled sequence stepping mode can be done level controlled or edge
controlled:
The I/O controlled sequence stepping mode can be set for every single sequence
entry. Thus a sequence can be controlled in a very flexible manner.
Note
From now on:
sequence step is I/O controlled sequence stepping mode
sequence reset is I/O controlled sequence pointer reset
Level controlled
Edge controlled
•
As long as the input is in high
state the sequence pointer will be
incremented from image to
image.
•
Can be combined with
Quick For-
mat Change Modes
. See Chapter
Standard Parameter Update Tim-
ing
on page 180 and Chapter
New: Quick Format Change Mode
(QFCM)
•
Level change is asynchronous to
image change.
•
A rising edge on the input will
cause one pointer increment
immediately.
•
Can be combined with
Quick For-
mat Change Modes

ing
