    Figure 3-2 Device Information Image Format and Frame Rate Support different image format and customized ROI setting. The specified ROI will increase the image frame rate in some models. Note: The following figures are for reference only. The actual format depends on the camera’s supported formats.
  • Page 18: Frame Rate

    The camera uses 12 bit ADC (some only support 10 bit ADC). Support 8 bit data output according to your data processing capacity. The camera will capture 8 bit from Most Significant Bits just as MSB8 output, in order to maintain the grey level output of the image data.

  • Page 22: Image Acquisition And Transmission

    Image Acquisition and Transmission Image acquisition mode is divided into internal trigger mode and external trigger mode. Internal trigger mode includes continuous acquisition mode and single frame acquisition mode. External trigger mode includes software trigger mode and hardware external trigger mode. Select On or Off in Trigger Mode to select either internal trigger mode or external trigger mode.
  • Page 23 Hardware external trigger mode  Select Trigger Source and Choose Hardware to switch to the hardware external trigger status. Available parameter setting of input signal from hardware external trigger: (1) Trigger edge selection Selecting Rising Edge/Falling Edge under the external signal is available. (2) Trigger delay As shown in Figure 3-16, in order to integrate later, the camera can set delay time when receiving the trigger signal.
  • Page 24: Strobe Output

    Strobe Output Strobe is external trigger output signal and is used for controlling external devices such as flashing light and so on. You can set the Strobe polarity, duration, output delay and pre-trigger through the client software. As shown in Figure 3-19, click Digital IO Control. Select Line Selector and choose output pin. Check Strobe Enabled and finish setting.

If exposure is in progress, the camera will ignore another external trigger signal. You can set a longer exposure time to achieve Bulb Shutter.
  • Page 27: Overlap Exposure And Non-Overlap Exposure

    Overlap Exposure and Non-overlap Exposure To capture one frame of image includes the exposure and the readout. According to the overlap relationship between the exposure time and the readout time, cameras with different chips can be divided into overlap exposure and non-overlap exposure. 3.7.1 Non-overlap Exposure After completing the current frame’s exposure and readout, the next frame starts to expose and read out.

    Imaging Parameter Setting 3.9.1 Exposure Time Please refer to the camera technical index to acquire the supported exposure time. The exposure control supports manual mode, single mode and continuous mode. When setting trigger mode, the single mode and continuous mode are invalid. When setting single mode or continuous mode, the exposure time will be limited by Auto Exposure Time Lower Limit and Auto Exposure Time Upper Limit.

    minimum. 3.9.3 White balance The camera supports the white balance. The white balance refers to the camera color adjustment depending on different light sources. Adjust the Gain Value of the image’s R channel and B channel to keep white regions white under different color temperatures. Ideally, the proportion of R channel, G channel and B channel in the white region is 1:1:1.
