    Obviously, when the packet rate is very high (that is, at high transfer rate which is common for 5GigE Vision systems), this represents significant overhead. Most network cards have introduced an interrupt moderation mode where the card waits Shad-o-Scan 3001/4501 Detector Teledyne DALSA...

The detector can be operated quite normally with a continuous beam x-ray source, however there can be motion blur associated with continuous beam imaging. In the case that pulsed x-ray operation is required, the X-ray pulse must be carefully timed so that x-ray from the pulse are not incident on the detector during readout.
