Timed
Timed The exposure duration time is set using the Exposure
Time feature and the exposure starts with aFrameStart
event.
Trigger Width
TriggerWidth Uses the width of the trigger signal pulse to control the
exposure duration. Use the Trigger Activation feature to
set the polarity of the trigger. The Trigger Width setting
is applicable with the Trigger Selector feature set to
Framestart.
Note that the Line Inverter feature setting may affect the
polarity of the trigger signal and is only available when
exposureAlignment = Reset.
exposureAlignment
Exposure
Alignment specifies how the exposure is
executed in relationship to the sensor capabilities and
current frame trigger.

Synchronous
Synchronous Exposure is synchronous to the internal timing of the
sensor. The readout is concurrent to the exposure for the
fastest possible frame rate. When a valid trigger is
received and the ExposureTime is shorter than the
readout period, the ExposureStart event is latched in the
previous frame’s readout. That is; the
ExposureStartEvent is delayed and is initiated when the
actual exposure starts such that the exposure ends and
readout begins as soon as the previous readout has
completed.
Reset
Reset Sensor timing is reset to initiate exposure when a valid
trigger is received. Readout is sequential to exposure,
reducing the maximum achievable frame rates. That is, a
trigger received during exposure or readout is ignored
since data would be lost by performing a reset.
Synchronous_EOE This mode is similar to the standard Synchronous mode
described above. The difference being that this mode
requires a continuous and fixed frequency trigger and is
used with the Auto-Brightness or Auto-Exposure modes.
The readout occurs only at the end of exposure. Use
ExposureTimeMaxValue to define the maximum possible
exposure time which is followed by the frame readout.
This mode is used to synchronize readouts of multiple
cameras having independent variable exposures.
