Description
The flash delay specifies the time between the ap‐
plication of a flash signal and the start of the flash.
The image acquisition is delayed by the set value.
This value is known and fixed for supported lamps.
For "Other" lamps, enter the value in μs here.
Note: Delayed start of flash for lamps with 12/24 V
strobe input
Due to the high trigger level and the rate of voltage
rise, a higher value for the flash delay may be nec‐
essary.
If a value that is too low is entered, the auto-expo‐
sure function can malfunction, for example.
The maximum flash duration specifies the maxi‐
mum time that a flash signal may last before the
lamp is damaged. This value is preset for supported
lamps. For "Other" lamps, enter the value in μs here.
The monitoring integrated in the camera ensures
that the lamp never flashes longer than specified
here.
The duty cycle is the ratio of flash duration to cycle
duration. It indicates how much load a lamp can
accept. A duty cycle of 5% means that, on average,
the lamp may be on for a maximum of 5% of the
time and must be off for 95% of the time.
Based on this value, the internal lamp monitoring
ensures that the connected lamp is not overloaded.
The wavelength information is required for the doc‐
umentation of verification tasks and is specified
here. For "Other" lamps, enter the wavelength of
the lamp you are using here.
The light color is required for the documentation of
verification tasks and is specified here. For "Other"
lamps, enter the light color of the lamp you are us‐
ing here.
Description
The exact focal length of the lens is required for
calculating the distance and the deflection.
