camera will continue to output image data at the maximum specified. The result will be that some
trigger pulses will be missed and there will be an associated distortion of the image data. When the
line rate returns to below the maximum specified, then normal imaging will be reestablished.
The Piranha XL camera can accommodate the full range of line rate frequency—from the maximum
specified to a stopped condition. No line artifact is generated as the line rate approaches and
reaches the stopped condition and starts up again in the same direction (PX-HM-16K06B-00-R
model only). Care must be taken that at no time does the object go backwards, even for a single
line, as it comes to a stop and starts up again. If this motion occurs, then a blurred image may
occur for a few lines.
Internal Trigger Mode
See the section Camera Control Category in Appendix A for GenICam features associated with this
section and how to use them.
Relevant Feature: Internal Line Rate
The internal trigger mode does not have much use in the normal inspection system environment,
as TDI imaging requires an accurate synchronization to the objects motion. However, the internal
mode can be very useful when a stationary target is used for camera evaluation or debugging
issues.
Measuring Line Rate
See Camera Control Category in Appendix A for GenICam features associated with this section and
how to use them.
Relevant Feature: Measured Line Rate, Refresh Measured Line Rate
The camera has the means to measure the line (trigger) rate that is currently being applied to the
trigger input of the camera, or what is being internally generated. This is not a continuous reading
but a one-time measurement that needs to be initiated by the user with the Refresh Measured Line
Rate command.
