5. Various Settings
(!) This camera is not equipped with the substantial shutter setting switch on the rear panel. "Shutter switch" or "Mode switch"
described below means setting values of hypothetical shutter switch set on the memory inside the camera via serial
communication command.
→ Refer to (5-8) for the specific setting method.

Electronic shutter is not used.
Exposure time of image sensor is equivalent to one frame duration.
Exposure is continuously performed for each frame.
Repeats exposure regardless of external trigger input (Vinit).
Repetition pitch is per frame.
Electronic shutter is released each time the external trigger is input (Vinit).
The shortest repetition pitch is [exposure time + 1 frame duration].
Shutter ,of which the exposure time is less than one frame, is used.
The shutter speed can be set as a preset shutter speed at 9 different levels both for
the continuous shutter/asynchronous shutter operations.
The shutter, of which the exposure time is two frames or over, is used.
(Only for continuous shutter mode) The shutter speed can be set as a preset shutter
speed at 9 different levels.
(Note) This camera allows this setting only for the continuous shutter mode.
Only in the case of asynchronous shutter setting, the shutter, of which shutter speed
corresponds to the pulse width (during L level) of the external trigger input (Vinit), is
released.
Shutter speed can be set as nH (n = 1 or larger integer number) in H (horizontal
synchronous time) unit.
The read out for each frame is conducted by the all pixel readout scanning. (5Hz)
The read out for each frame is conducted by the partial readout scanning.(10Hz)
The vertical width of the longitudinal picture area corresponds to approx. one-half of
the central portion of the image pickup area.
The read out in the midst of high speed/preset/asynchronous shutter operation is
conducted with high-speed fast-dump operation. The smear which appears in high
speed shutter operation is reduced only on the upper side above the image.
control. More specifically, the shutter speed is set by the shutter switch positions
from "1" to "9" for the continuous shutter operation, or the shutter switch positions
from "1" to "9" (PWC (Pulse width control mode)=DISABLED) or from "1" to "8"
(PWC (Pulse width control mode)=ENABLE) for the asynchronous shutter operation.
The shutter speed is defined in the Table 5-3.
signal that is externally input in the asynchronous shutter mode. With this camera,
this is selected by setting PWC to "ENABLED" and the shutter switch position to "9"
in the asynchronous shutter mode.
vertical synchronous time). The shutter speed is set as a preset fixed length of the 9
different levels that are determined by the position of the shutter switch (continuous
shutter and asynchronous shutter).
