5 Functionality
Missed trigger counter The missed trigger counter counts trigger pulses that were ignored by
the camera because they occurred within the exposure or read-out time of an image. In
free-running mode it counts all incoming external triggers (counter width 8 bit / no wrap
around).
Missed burst trigger counter The missed burst trigger counter counts trigger pulses that were
ignored by the camera in the burst trigger mode because they occurred while the camera
still was processing the current burst trigger sequence.
Missed FrameCombine trigger counter Counts missed triggers due to the FrameCombine
feature (see also Section 5.2.10). A missed FrameCombine trigger can occur if a trigger is
applied while filler rows are added to a frame due to a FrameCombine timeout.
5.8.2 Status Information
Status information is inserted in the 4 LSB in the last 3D data row (see bits labeled STAT in Fig.
5.6). LSB are transmitted first (see Table 5.6). The status information is divided in fields of 32
bits each, where every information field corresponds to one information parameter (see Table
5.7). Unused bits are set to 0.
