Trigger delay
The camera can delay the trigger signal.
Trigger counter
Accepted triggers by which video output is performed are counted. Triggers are counted up by the internal counter even
in the free-run operation. Setting 0 resets the counter. Triggers that have been removed by trigger range limit are not
counted. The trigger counter returns to 0 when the upper limit (2147483647) is reached.
Frame counter
The frame counter increases when an image is output. Setting 0 resets the counter. The trigger counter returns to 0 when
the upper limit (2147483647) is reached.
Trigger range limit
Only signals in the set trigger width can be accepted as the trigger signal. This functions as a noise filter, which removes
chattering or disturbance noise in the trigger signal line. This also functions as a trigger selector, whereby only a specific
camera can be operated by the trigger when multiple cameras share one trigger signal line. When the trigger signal is
input, exposure is started after the latency as per trigger range settings. If the trigger width is out of the range, video is
not output. If the trigger source is a soft trigger, trigger range limitation is not enabled.
