6.4. Operation Modes
This camera can operate in 5 primary modes.
1.
TR=0 Con
Normal continuous Mode
Pre-selected exposure.
2.
TR=1 EPS
Edge Pre-select Mode
Pre-selected exposure.
3.
TR=2 PWC
Pulse Width Control Mode
Pulse width controlled exposure.
4.
TR=3 SG
Sensor Gate Control
Strobe illum. exp. with delayed read out
5.
TR=4 RCT
Reset Continuous Trigger
Pre-selected exposure.
The triggered accumulation in EPS, PWC and RTC mode can be LVAL synchronous or LVAL a-
synchronous.
In
LVAL synchronous accumulation
, a new exposure can be started while the previous frame is
read out. The new exposure should not be finished before the frame is read out. FVAL shall be
low for >2 LVAL. The maximum frame rate in trigger modes can then be close to the frame rate
in continuous mode.
The minimum trigger interval should be longer than (1 FVAL+2 LVAL).
To avoid <1L time jitter in LVAL synchronous mode, it is recommended to synchronize the trigger
to LVAL.
In
LVAL a-synchronous accumulation
, a new trigger must not be applied before the previous
frame is read out. (FVAL is low).
The minimum trigger interval should be longer than (exposure time + 1 FVAL+3 LVAL).
Refer to chapter 6.4.1. and 6.4.2. for accumulation details.
Refer to chapter “7. Configuring the Camera” for details in mode settings.
