Start / Stop
13.1
Acquisition (Camera)
Once the image acquisition is started, three steps are processed within the camera:
Determination of the current set of image parameters
▪
▪
Exposure of the sensor
Readout of the sensor.
▪
Afterwards a repetition of this process takes place until the camera is stopped.
Stopping the acquisition means that the process mentioned above is aborted. If the stop
signal occurs within a readout, the current
readout will be finished before stopping the
camera. If the stop signal arrives within an exposure, this will be aborted.
Special Case: Asynchronous Reset
The asynchronous reset represents a special case of stopping the current acquisition.
Thereby exposure is aborted immediately. Thus the current image is not read out and the
image is upcasted.
This feature was introduced to accelerate the changing of image parameters.
Start / Stop
13.2
Interface
Without starting the interface, transmission of image data from the camera to the PC
will not proceed. If the image acquisition is started befor the interface is activated, the
recorded images are lost.
If the interface is stopped during a transmission, this is aborted immediately.
Pause / Resume
13.3
Interface
Pausing while the interface is operational, results in an interim storage of the recorded
images within the internal buffer of the camera.
After resuming the interface, the buffered image data will be transferred to the PC.
13.4 Acquisition Modes
In general, three acquisition modes are available for the cameras in the Baumer HXG
series.
Free Running
13.4.1
Free running means the camera records images continuously without external events.
13.4.2 Trigger
The basic idea behind the trigger mode is the synchronization of cameras with machine
cycles. Trigger mode means that image recording is not continuous, but triggered by
external events.
13.4.3 Sequencer
A sequencer is used for the automated control of series of images, using different settings
for exposure time and gain.
