External Trigger Programmable Exposure | Faber M1024, M640, M1600

External Trigger Programmable Exposure

•Also known as “Edge Pre-select” exposure. See the timing diagram below.

•The external trigger edge initiates the exposure process. The active external trigger edge can be selected as either the low-high or high-low transition.

•The delay from active trigger edge to start of exposure is programmable from 1μs to 4 seconds (1μs steps) .

•Exposure duration is programmable from 100μs to 4 seconds (1μs steps).

•Supports "Synchronous Mode" on page 46 timing for fastest possible frame rates. Start of exposure is aligned on the next horizontal line while exposure duration granularity is 1µs. Exposure and sensor readout can be concurrent.

•Supports "Reset Mode" on page 47 timing. Exposure granularity is 1µs. Exposure and sensor readout must be sequential, limiting the maximal frame rate.

•Any external trigger received before the previous exposure is complete is ignored. An application can elect to receive messages about ignored triggers. See "Events" on page 63.
