5.12.6.3 Setting the Timer Duration Time
You can set the Timer 1 duration by setting the Timer Duration parameter. The units for setting this
parameter are µs and the value can be set in increments of 1 µs.
1. Use the Timer Selector to select Timer 1.
2. Set the value of the Timer Duration parameter.
You can set the Timer Selector and the Timer Duration parameter value from within your application
software by using the Basler pylon API. The following code snippet illustrates using the API to set
the selector and the parameter value:
camera.TimerSelector.SetValue(TimerSelector_Timer1);
camera.TimerDuration.SetValue(10.0);
You can also use the Basler pylon Viewer application to easily set the parameters.
For more information about the pylon API and the pylon Viewer, see Section 3.1 on page 43 .
5.13 Significance of I/O Line Status
5.13.1 Line Status for Input Lines
This section informs about the relation between input line status and certain external conditions.
The opto-isolated and the GPIO input lines are considered.
The line status information depends, among others, on whether the input line inverter is disabled or
enabled (Section 5.11.3 on
page 79 ).
Make sure the ground for opto-isolated I/O and the ground of the power supply for the opto-isolated
input line are connected to the same ground.
For applicable pins, see Table 10 on page 52 , and for line schematics, see Figure 35 , Figure 38 ,
and Figure 39 .
