CV-M2

6.4.1. Continuous Operation (Non triggered)

Mode settings can be done with RS-232C. Trigger Mode Normal. TR=0. It is for applications where the camera is continuously running without external trigger. The shutter mode can be normal or programmable exposure. (SM=0, SM=1). The shutter will work in all 10 steps up to 1/14,000 second or with the programmable exposure in 1216 steps. In partial scanning, shutter times longer than the actual frame time has no meaning. The exposure will be equal the frame time. In this mode it is possible to have CCIR/EIA composite analogue video output for monitor use. It is for full scan only. The video can be 50 or 60 frames per second with a line frequency at 15.734 kHz. CCIR has 290 active lines. Shutter speed <313 LVAL. EIA has 240 active lines. Shutter speed <263 LVAL.
