2.8.1 - Single Scan
The term ‘Single Scan’ refers to an acquisition in which only one user frame is transmitted from the camera.
A user frame is output from the sensor on receipt of a valid trigger of the selected type, stored in the on-camera
memory, and then transmitted from the camera. Note that any subsequent triggers within the same acquisition
are ignored.
2.8.2 - Kinetic Series
The term ‘Kinetic Series’ refers to an acquisition in which a finite number of user frames are transmitted from
the camera. The number of frames in a Kinetic Series is defined by the user. One user frame is output from the
sensor on receipt of each valid trigger of the selected type and is stored in the on-camera memory. Valid
triggers continue to output user frames from the sensor until the defined number of user frames has been
reached. Frames are read out of the on-camera memory and transmitted from the camera in as quick
succession as possible. Note that after the required number of valid triggers has been received, any
subsequent triggers within the same acquisition are ignored.
The trigger rate can exceed the maximum rate that frames can be transmitted from the camera, with the
understanding that the on-camera memory will tend to fill. In this case, care must be taken with the number of
frames defined in the series such that the on-camera memory does not become full otherwise the acquisition
will not be able to complete.
2.8.3 - Accumulate
The term ’Accumulate’ refers to an acquisition in which a number of frames in a series are accumulated
together into a single image. This accumulation of user frames is performed off-camera. Either all the user
frames in a series are accumulated to give a single accumulated image or a smaller number of user frames in
the series are accumulated to give a series of accumulated images,
