*1 This is a signal input from outside. Make sure to
input both HD and VD signals in this case. Input
the signal so that the VD phase aligns with the HD
falling edge.
*2 Exposure time (Te)
Te = Trigger pulse width + 97 µ sec (EIA)
Te = Trigger pulse width + 120 µ sec (CCIR)
(The effective trigger pulse width for the external
trigger shutter operation is between 2 µ s and 1/4 s.)
*3 The normal operation state is chosen when the
trigger pulse width is 1/3 s or more. (By entering a
continuous VD in this section, an image is output.)
The trigger falling edge restores the external
trigger shutter operation. In this case, the area
between the falling edge of a trigger pulse and the
subsequent 50 ms period is an external trigger
input inhibition area. There is no guarantee of
operation for any trigger input selected in this
period.
