Figure 2: Strobe Polarity
Unconditional Strobe
To perform an unconditional strobe, use software to set up the board
to output a strobe signal regardless of the field or frame being
acquired (strobe now). Then, when you execute a software command,
the strobe signal is output.
Using software, you can specify the following parameters for an
unconditional strobe:
• The length of the strobe output pulse (3.3 ms, 6.6 ms, 13 ms,
26.6 ms, 53.3 ms, 106.6 ms, 213.3 ms, or 426.6 ms.
• The polarity of the strobe output signal as active high or active
low.
• The polarity of the strobe output signal as active high or active
low.
