7.9 Sequence Mode
This is a function to capture images in sequence based on preset ROI, Exposure Time, Gain and
other parameters in the sequence index table. In order activate this function:
7.9.1 Video send mode
Sequence Mode has two operating modes and it is set in the video send mode.
Video Send Mode
How to select Index
Trigger Sequence
The index can be selected by the
frame start trigger signal. (Setting
index is determined by the next index
setting)
Command Sequence
Select the index directly by setting
the index number by Command
Sequence Index command.
7.9.2 Sequence mode
Basic setting to use this function
Trigger Mode: ON

Note 1: SP-5000M-PMCL only
Note 2: The minimum trigger interval assumes that the exposure time is the same for each index in the
sequence. If the exposure time is different, the difference in period should be added to the
interval calculation.
Note 3: If it is necessary to use different exposure times, it is recommended to arrange the exposure
times from the shortest to the longest.
Note 4: In sequence mode, the exposure should be adjusted so that the operation is not in LVAL sync
accumulation.
7.9.3 Sequence mode timing
The following drawing shows the sequence mode timing concept.
Fig. 27 Behavior of Sequence trigger
In this mode, it is not possible to overlap the next exposure while the previous trigger operation
(Index table) is in progress.
Sequence Index Table should proceed through Index 0 and after Index 0 is activated, the next
index can be processed.

Index 1
Index 2
Index 3
