Synchronization Signals for Fixed Frame Length Acquisition
A trigger event is only generated when a grab is active; when not grabbing no trigger events are
generated. When a frame is complete, the frame grabber checks for the specified active trigger
level and, if present, grabs the next frame; otherwise, it waits for the next detected active trigger
level.
In the following diagrams:
“
T
” indicates a
valid external trigger event (SapAcquisition::EventExternalTrigger).
“
Ignored
” is an ignored event
(SapAcquisition::EventExternalTriggerIgnored).
