Edge Pre-Select Mode - JAI CV-M4+ Operation Manual

6.5. Edge Pre-select Mode

The trigger leading edge will start the exposure H synchronous or H a-synchronous (HC=0, HC=1).
The exposure stops and is read out after the shutter time selected. It can be the 10 steps in
normal or 1056 steps in programmable. SM=0 or SM=1. This mode will operate with full and
partial scanning and with V-binning (M4
combinations is not allowed.
In this mode the Restart Continuous Trigger mode (RC=1) can be activated. (By RS-232C and CL
only). The camera is then running continuously, and it can be reset and restarted by the trigger
pulse.
If smearless read out (SL=1) is used, the exposure starts with a delay 133H (5.23 msec.) after the
trigger. An EEN pulse will indicate the active accumulation time, and a FEN pulse indicates that
the resulting video is read out.
To use this mode:

Important notes on using this mode.
•
The duration of the trigger should be >2H to <3V. (>72.64µsec to <120msec).
•
The minimum trigger interval should be >(exposure time + 1 frame). A new trigger must
not be applied during the previous frame read out. (Before FEN is high).
•
Smearless readout cannot be used together with Reset Continuous Trigger.
