6.1.6. Window of Interest
If a higher frame rate is wanted, it is possible to change the CMOS sensors sensing area to the window of interest. WS =1 for windows scan.
The X,Y start coordinate, the window width and height can be programmed.
WX can be in the range 0 to 657 WY can be in the range 0 to 490
WWcan be in the range 2 to 659. (WX + WW ≤ 659) WH can be in the range 3 to 493. (WY + WH ≤ 493) The frame rate will not increase if the width WW is reduced. The horizontal shift register need to be read out in its full length.
Minimum size for the window of interest is 2 (h) x 3 (v) pixels.
Maxim frame rate is 4953 fps.
For DVAL timing details for the window of interest, refer to 6.2.5 fig. 17 through 19.

The auto trigger function, TR=3 can be used as sensing device inside the camera field of view. The scanned area is from top of the image, and the height can be programmed with the command AT=
493.The window is always from the top of image. The read out time is the active number of LVAL + 9 LVAL.
Maxim frame rate is 5403 fps given by the 11 LVAL for a minimum window read out. (1 LVAL = 16.825 ∝sec.)
The connected frame grabber should be programmed to sense if objects passing the window. The horizontal position and the signal threshold could be the programmed parameters. If an object passing is detected, a trigger is send to the camera, and a full frame is exposed with the same accumulation time as programmed for AT. The resulting image, a full frame or windows scan, (depending of windows scan setting), is read out to the grabber, and the auto trigger function will start again.
