Electronic Shutter Data Transfer Electronic Shutter Data Transfer Exposure Time Exposure Time Readout Exposure time has been extended to correspond with readout time and does not follow the falling trigger pulse. Trigger Mode 6: External Frame Rate and Internal Exposure Time This mode differs according to the trigger rate and the exposure time setting. However, the following rules apply to any condition: • Any additional external triggers occurring during the exposure time will be ignored. • All non-ignored external triggers will pulse an electronic shutter to dump any current exposure data at the start of the trigger pulse and start the exposure time. • At the end of the exposure time, the collected data will be transferred to the readout area only if it is not already in the process of reading out. If readout is already in process, the exposure time will be extended until the readout is finished, as is illustrated in Example 6. • If you are using an area of interest while operating in mode 6, see section 3.10 Defining an Area of Interest (AOI) for more timing information.

Mode 3: External Trigger with Maximum Exposure<br />

<strong>Frame</strong> rate is set by the period of the external trigger pulses. Since there is no electronic<br />

shuttering, any trigger pulses faster than the readout time are ignored. The falling edge of<br />

the external trigger marks the beginning of the exposure.<br />

Mode 4: Smart EXSYNC, External <strong>Frame</strong> Rate and<br />

Exposure Time<br />

In this mode, the external trigger rate sets both the frame rate and the exposure time. The<br />

rising pulse of the external trigger marks the beginning of the exposure.<br />

Note: At the end of the exposure time, the collected data will be transferred to the read<br />

out area only if it is not already in the process of reading out. If readout is already in<br />

process, the exposure time will be extended until the readout has finished, as is illustrated<br />

in Example 4.<br />
