Numerical	705

This parameter is expressed in Hertz (s^-1).

It declares the line rate, which is the repetition frequency of the video lines scanned and delivered by the camera feeding the channel.

This value is a performance figure often stated as is by the camera manufacturer.

For area-scan cameras, the line rate is usually under control of the camera itself.

In the special case of an area-scan camera receiving horizontal drive information from the frame grabber, the LineRate_Hz parameter expresses the recommended horizontal frequency to be applied to the camera.

For line-scan cameras, the line rate is usually under control of the frame grabber. In that case, the LineRate_Hz parameter declares the maximum line frequency the camera can accept.

In the special case of a line-scan camera controlling its own line timing, the LineRate_Hz parameter expresses the actual horizontal frequency set by the camera.
