In this tab (Figure 18), you can control multiple connected LED-Panels. Version 4 and Version 5
can be controlled simultaneously but will appear under different tabs as they have slightly
different features.
First, choose your desired operating mode. Define the movement direction of the LEDs:
•
Single LED
: the LEDs light up in succession (for modes
Response
,
Exposure time,
and
Frame rate)
•
Multiple LED
: all LEDs in a row or a column light up simultaneously (for mode
Rolling
shutter
)
By moving the slider, you can set the device
frequency
. The frequency of V5 can be adjusted up
to 50000 Hz compared to a high of 2000 for V4. With the two buttons, you can start, stop, and
reset the LED-Panel and set the LED(s) to the starting position.
The slider
LED brightness
and
Display brightness
adjust the LED array and display brightness.
This adjustment might be helpful when changing the camera's exposure time correctly for
specific testing conditions. For example, if you perform a test under low light conditions and use
the automatic exposure mode of your camera. Without dimming the LED array and display of
LED-Panel, the bright LED and display light can influence your camera's exposure.
The
LED
brightness can also be adjusted in V5. This feature is not available for V4.
Note: These settings are applied to all connected LED-Panels; it is not possible to control the
devices separately.
iQ-Trigger

Measuring timing is a critical task in the assessment of imaging devices. The human finger
releasing the camera is a source of inaccuracy that should be avoided in a lab environment.
iQ-Trigger is a mechanical finger that can press a camera's release button (touch screen or
hardware button) precisely and at defined moments.
