*3)
*1) Binning can also be selected by the internal switch SW301.6. Binning has priority over partial scanning. If partial scanning
is active when a binning mode is activated, binning will take over and the scanning will be full. The line frequency will be
lower in V binning modes (H= 43.3 µsec.).
*2) If positive logic is used (TP=1), the first trigger pulse after power up will be ignored.
*3) Data from the latest used data area is loaded as default on power up.
