Trigger Control Features Category

The Trigger Control Features category, as shown by CamExpert, groups features used
to configure an external trigger input for acquisition. For more information on using an
external trigger input, see the

Trigger Controls Feature Descriptions

The following table describes these parameters along with their view attribute.

Description
Time taken by camera to readout a frame
from the sensor. The readout time is factory
calibrated. The readout time / number of
image lines provides the acquisition delay
between lines. (RO)
Determines if the sensor outputs frames on
request or is free-running.Typically,
microbolometers sensors provide better
image quality when free-running.
Microbolometer sensor is continuously
acquiring images. This ensures the most
stable operating temperature conditions and
provides better image quality. When
TriggerMode is On, upon reception of a
trigger event the next frame will be output.
This gives a frame latency up to one frame
(33.3 ms).
When TriggerMode is On, the
microbolometer will output images only
upon detection of a valid trigger event. This
gives a deterministic frame latency and is
useful when synchronizing multiple
cameras. Image quality will be best when
the triggers occur at a stable frequency.
Selects which type of trigger to configure
with the various Trigger features.
Enables the selection of a trigger source
that starts the Acquisition of frame.
