Controlling image capture
I/O controlled sequence pointer reset
I/O controlled sequence pointer reset is always edge controlled. A rising
edge on the input pin resets the pointer to the first entry.
I/O controlled sequence pointer reset can be combined with Quick Format
Change Modes. See Chapter
and Chapter
New: Quick Format Change Mode (QFCM)
I/O controlled sequence stepping mode and I/O controlled
sequence pointer reset via software command
Both sequence modes can be controlled via software command.
Points to pay attention to when working with a
sequence
Note
• If more images are recorded than defined in
SeqLength, the settings for the last image remain in
effect.
• If sequence mode is cancelled, the camera can use the
FIFO for other tasks. For this reason, a sequence must
be loaded back into the camera after sequence mode
has been cancelled.
• To repeat the sequence, stop the camera and send the
multi-shot or IsoEnable command again. Each of these
two commands resets the sequence.
• Using SingleShot mode in combination with a
sequence does not make sense, because SingleShot
mode restarts the sequence every time.
• The sequence may not be active when setting the
AutoRewind flag. For this reason it is important to set
the flag before the multi-shot or IsoEnable commands.
• If the sequence is used with the deferred transport
feature, the number of images entered in Seq_Length
may not be exceeded.
The following screenshot shows an example of a sequence for eight different
image settings. It uses the AVT Firetool program as graphical representa-
tion. Please note the changes in the shutter time; that creates descending
image brightness, and the change in the image position; which creates a
panning effect.
