1: This is a signal input from external equipment. Both HD and VD signals must be input. The phase of the
*
VD signal must coincide with the falling edge of the HD signal.
2: As shown in the table on page 7, exposure time Te is determined by the DIP switch setting.
*
3: Normal operation is engaged when the high period exceeds 1/3 sec. After that, the external trigger shutter
*
operation is engaged when the trigger pulse goes "low". In this case, the area between the falling edge of
a trigger pulse and the subsequent 50 ms period is an external input inhibition area. During the trigger
inhibit period, an input trigger may be missed.
4: An external VD signal for 10 ms to 110 ms must be input from the rising edge of a trigger pulse (as shown
*
by 1 and 2 in the figure). For the input except described above, the operation cannot be ensured.
Note
: An image is superimposed when the next exposure ends before the previous image is output.
