(Triggering)
Kinetix offers several methods of integrating with external hardware devices. Each camera
has a 10-pin, Hirose HR212-10RC-10SDL(74) connector on the back of the camera for trigger
input/output operations.
The signals provided to the user are:
Trigger In
Inputs initiate an exposure or sequence
Trigger Ready Out
Status indicating if the camera can accept another trigger
Read Out
Status indicating the camera is currently digitizing
Expose Out 1
Output for controlling illumination source 1
Expose Out 2
Output for controlling illumination source 2
Expose Out 3
Output for controlling illumination source 3
Expose Out 4
Output for controlling illumination source 4
A special BNC breakout cable is provided to easily access these signals, and each break out
BNC cable is labeled according to its function. Note that one BNC output is a spare for
future use.
Trigger Modes
Kinetix supports four trigger modes and expose out behaviors. The triggering modes and
expose out behaviors of the camera are described as:
Timed Mode (Internal)
Timed mode is the default triggering mode for Kinetix. This means, the software/
application initiates the start of a sequence of acquisitions. Once initiated, each frame
captured in the sequence is controlled by the internal timing generators of the camera.
Camera settings, expose out behavior and sequence size are set in the software
