Counter and Timer Control Function
Related Setting Items:
Note:
This camera supports only the counter function.
The counter function counts up change points in the camera’s internal signals using the camera’s
internal counter and reads that information from the host side. This function is useful for verifying error
conditions via the count value using internal camera operations.
Four counters are available on the camera; Counter0, Counter1, Counter2, and Counter3. The
functions that can be counted are fixed for each counter.
l
Counter0: Counts the number of FrameTrigger.
l
Counter1: Counts the number of ExposureStart.
l
Counter2: Counts the number of SensorReadOut.
l
Counter3: Counts the number of FrameTransferEnd.
When a problem occurs in a system that includes this camera, comparing the values from multiple
counters allows you to verify the extent of normal operability and can be useful when investigating the
cause of the problem.
