time (accumulation time) is governed by the fixed shutter speed set up by the rear panel DIP- switches or via RS-232C control. The resulting video signal will start to be read out after the selected shutter time. The WEN pulse indicates the start of valid video signal. Refer to timing charts for details. A new trigger pulse must not be applied before the video read out has finished. If the camera is synchronized to an external HD signal, there are some requirements to the phase between the ext. HD and the Ext. trigger. The falling edge of the trigger should be less than 8 ∝sec before the falling edge of the ext. HD and less than 2 ∝sec after the falling edge of the ext. HD (see figure 6-2). Otherwise the jitter will be too high.
To use this mode:
Set SW1-5,6 and to SW1-7 on the rear plate of the camera to “OFF” or use the RS 232C control.

6.3.2Pulse Width Control Trigger Mode
This trigger mode where the length of the trigger pulse determines the exposure time operates in H non-reset mode. In H non-reset mode the trigger pulse and the HD signal are synchronized. The exposure will start at the first HD pulse after the falling edge of the external trigger signal. The exposure ends at the rising edge of the external trigger signal. The trigger pulse must be longer than >1H (51∝sec) and shorter than 2000 H. To avoid jitter the camera should be synchronized to an external HD. There are some requirements to the phase between the ext. HD and the Ext. trigger. The falling edge of the trigger should appear in the interval less than 8 ∝sec before the falling edge of the ext. HD and less than 2 ∝sec after the falling edge of the ext. HD and the rising edge off the trigger should be fall in the interval 8 ∝sec before the rising edge of the ext. HD and 2 ∝sec after rising edge of the ext. HD. (See figure 6-2).
The resulting video signal will start to be read out after the rising edge of the external trigger signal. The WEN pulse indicates the start of valid video signal. Refer to timing charts for details.
A new trigger pulse must not be applied before the video read out has finished.
