When decimation is chosen, only every n-th pixel is used to create the output image. For example, with a 2x1 vertical skipping, every odd number line is used and every even number line is skipped, resulting in an image with half its original vertical resolution. Skipping is a faster downsampling mode, but also introduces more aliasing effects. XIMEA Technical Manual, Version: v241121... -
Page 61: Image Data Output Formats
When using Transport Data Format, the Image Processing block from XiAPI Image Data Flow is skipped and therefore the Transport format is the most effective data format in terms of CPU and RAM usage.

Page 64: Acquisition Modes
Unlike in the free-run, each image exposure can also be triggered with an input trigger signal. In this mode, the sensor waits in stage until the trigger signal arrives. Only then, the exposure of first frame is started, which is followed by the data readout. XIMEA cameras supports several triggered modes along with single image exposure after one trigger. -

Page 66: Set Exposure
Figure 54: Multiple exposures - exposure time defined by trigger pulse length - number of exposures set to 5 In both above modes there is a short period (FOT) after each exposure during which the next exposure cannot start. In case of the cameras with IMX sensors this period is 11* line period. XIMEA Technical Manual, Version: v241121... -
Page 67: Exposure Time
The gain value influences the analog-to-digital conversion process of the image sensor pipeline and acts as a multiplier of the output signal. Using gain values greater than 0 will increase the pixel intensities but may also increase the overall noise level. For some camera models the gain can be set in discrete steps only.
