8.4.2          Vertical Timing 

The vertical timing for Continuous mode and full frame scan are shown below. 
This is common for both Bayer color imagers. 
 
If JAI Partial Scan is set to False, 
 

 

 
 

1L = 1660 clock (32.344

μ

s) 

1L : 1 LVAL period

 

OB: optical black 

FVAL is HIGH in the optical black and effective video periods 

LVAL is always output

 

DVAL is output during the effective lines 

 
 

This timing chart shows camera timing. The output through GigE interface is only effective lines.
