• The settings for exposure control and triggers are related to each other. Be sure to
configure the settings described in "ExposureMode" .
Shortest Repetition Period for Triggers
The reciprocal of the maximum frame rate is the time required to output one frame. The
shortest repetition periods for triggers cannot be lower than that value.
The above table indicates the shortest trigger periods for when [TriggerOverLap] is set to
[Readout]. When [TriggerOverLap] is set to [Off], even when the exposure time is shorter
than the frame period, the cycle may be extended.
Start exposure in response to the external trigger signal input. Select
this to perform exposure control using external triggers.
Start image acquisition in response to the external trigger signal input.
Stop image acquisition in response to the external trigger signal input.
Output acquired images at a specified timing in response to an
external trigger signal input.
* There is a limit to the number of image frames that can be stored
internally. The limits for each image format are as follows. Acquired
images must be output to avoid exceeding these limits.
8 bit: Up to 8 frames
10 bit: Up to 4 frames
