This setting can range from 0x000002 to 0xFFFFFF.
The setting represents a multiplier and the actual value of Timer 1 is
determined by the following:
Timer 1 = setting x 0.0625 µs
To determine the value for this setting, simply divide your desired
Timer 1 value by 0.0625 µs. For example, if you wish to set Timer 1
to 2 µs, the calculation would be as shown below:
setting = 2 µs / 0.0625 µs
setting = 32
In this case, the setting would be 32 (decimal) which translates to a
hexidecimal setting of 0x000020
When you are setting Timer 1, be sure to follow the recommendations
in Section 3.2.1.2 if you are operating the camera in the ExSync
programmable exposure control mode. If you are operating the
camera in a Free-run mode, be sure to follow the recommendations
in Section 3.2.2.2.
