In Idle mode, T
EW
is not defined on the detector but it is determined by the interval between
trigger (minus T
R/O
) so the time between trigger (minus the readout time T
R/O
) defines the
exposure window (T
EW
).
7
When the detector received a second trigger, the SyncOut levels change their status and the
image is read out and transmitted to the PC. SyncOuts go back to their initial status after
T
R/O.

If no more trigger signals are sent, the detector resumes his original status until the next
external trigger.
The External Edge Trigger behavior is similar to the Software one, but the trigger signal comes
from an external source and it is directed to the
SyncIn
port. The timing specifications are the
same as for Software Trigger source shown in
.
The
SyncOuts
indicate when the detector is ready to accept a
SyncIn
pulse. It is low (inactive)
during a system reset cycle, during power-down (sleep) mode, and during a frame exposure
cycle.
displays an example of External Edge Trigger configuration.
In this case, the
SyncIn
pulse is driven high when the user activates the ‘Expose’ button for the
X-ray equipment. With the change of the
SyncOuts
levels, the generator is informed that the
detector is ready to receive the X-ray emission and starts to irradiate.
