EXSYNC (Triggers Frame Readout)
Fram e rate can be set internally u sing the serial interface. The external control signal
EXSYN C is optional and enabled throu gh the serial inter face. This cam era u ses the falling
edge of EXSYN C to trigger pixel read ou t. Section Exposu re Mod e and Line/ Fram e Rate

2.3 Camera Link Video Timing

The Piranha H S-xx cam era has tw o d ifferent read ou t tim es. The first read ou t tim e is the
CCD Read ou t w here the cam era pixels are read ou t into the cam era's linestore. The
second read ou t is the linestore read ou t w here the linestore pixels are read ou t to you r
acqu isition system . The cam era's m inim u m read ou t tim e is d epend ant on w hich of these
tw o read ou t tim es are greater w here the greater read ou t tim e w ill be the cam era's
m inim u m read ou t tim e.
