    Please make sure the camera is connected correctly. If a link is not established by clicking on the reconnect button, read more in chapter “7, Troubleshooting”. 4.2.1 Gain The gain may be adjusted with the 4 option buttons. You may increase the gain up to 8 (or 4 for Cube3/4/5).
  • Page 31: Framerates Of Master And Slave Camera

    4.2.4.1 Framerates of master and slave camera If you synchronize a slave camera by a master camera, then the framerate of the slave camera must be slightly above the master camera’s frame rate (as mentioned before), otherwise the slave camera will not provide the same framerate as the master camera. Example: You want to record with 1000 frames per second.

    5.7.3.2 Multi sequence - optional The frame memory may be divided into up to 16 same-sized memory ranges for se- quences, called multi sequence mode. Each memory range is then filled by a trigger event, i.e. by the occurrence of the external trigger signal or the ImageBLITZ trigger. After a trigger event the post-trigger frames will be recorded and the camera switches to the next sequence, beginning the recording of the pre-trigger frames.
