Line-Scan Operational Modes
Six fundamental camera modes are applicable to the line-scan camera and grabber association.
MultiCam provides two expert-level parameters named Expose and Readout to declare the camera operational mode. Their possible combinations are the following:
Expose |
Readout |
Camera mode description |
Operational mode |
INTCTL |
INTCTL |
The camera operates in the "synchronous scanning" modality. |
SC |
The light exposure duration is set by the camera following some form of earlier configuration. |
|||
INTPRM |
INTCTL |
The camera operates in the "synchronous scanning" modality. |
SP |
The exposure is permanent. |
|||
INTPRM |
PLSTRG |
The camera operates in the "asynchronous reset" modality. |
RP |
The exposure is permanent. |
|||
PLSTRG |
INTCTL |
The camera operates in the "asynchronous reset" modality. |
RC |
The light exposure duration is set by the camera following some form of earlier configuration. |
|||
PLSTRG |
PLSTRG |
The camera operates in the "asynchronous reset" modality. |
RG2 |
The light exposure duration is set by the camera following some form of earlier configuration. |
|||
WIDTH |
INTCTL |
The camera operates in the "asynchronous reset" modality. |
RG |
The frame grabber positively controls the camera light exposure duration through the specific MultiCam parameter Expose_us. |
