Acquisition Status Indicator; Trigger Ready Signal (All Models Except Sca750-60) - Basler Scout User Manual

Image Acquisition Control
You can set the Line Selector and the Line Source parameter value from within your application
software by using the Basler pylon API. The following code snippet illustrates using the API to set
the selector and the parameter value:
Camera.LineSelector.SetValue( LineSelector_Out1 );
Camera.LineSource.SetValue( LineSource_ExposureActive );
You can also use the Basler pylon Viewer application to easily set the parameters.
For more information about changing the assignment of camera output signals to physical output
lines, see Section 6.2.1 on
For more information about the electrical characteristics of the camera's output lines, see
Section 5.7.2 on page

7.11.2 Acquisition Status Indicator

When controlling image acquisition with a software trigger you can use the acquisition status feature
to determine when the camera is rady to be triggered for an image acquisition.
For more information about the acquisition status feature, see Section 9.15 on
7.11.3 Trigger Ready Signal
The information in this section applies to all camera models except the
scA750-60 fm/fc. For information about scA750-60 fm/fc cameras, see
Section 7.11.4 on
As described in the previous section, the cameras can operate in an "overlapped" acquisition
fashion. When the camera is operated in this manner, it is especially important that:
the exposure time of a new image acquisition not start until exposure of the previously
acquired image is complete, and
the exposure time of a new image acquisition not end until readout of the previously acquired
image is complete.
The camera supplies a "Trigger Ready" (TrigRdy) output signal you can use to ensure that these
conditions are met when you are using a hardware trigger signal to trigger image acquisition. The
trigger ready signal relates to different trigger signals, depending on the image acquisition control
mode:
In standard mode, the trigger ready signal relates to the frame start trigger signal
In legacy mode, the trigger ready signal relates to the acquisition start trigger signal.
