start trigger, whenever a proper electrical signal is applied to the line, the camera will recognize
the signal as an acquisition start trigger signal.
Frame Start Trigger - If the input line is selected as the source signal for the frame start trigger,
whenever a proper electrical signal is applied to the line, the camera will recognize the signal
as an frame start trigger signal.
Frame Counter Reset - If the input line is selected as the source signal for the frame counter
reset, whenever a proper electrical signal is applied to the line, the counter value for the frame
counter chunk feature will be reset.
Trigger Input Counter Reset - If the input line is selected as the source signal for the trigger
input counter reset, whenever a proper electrical signal is applied to the line, the counter value
for the trigger reset counter chunk feature will be reset.
