GigE IR & scientific camera and driver features
This document is a master document for all Allied Vision GigE camera models and is NOT camera specific
TriggerOverlap [Enum] R/W
Permitted window of trigger activation, relative to previous frame. Does not
work with Software triggering. Only external.
TriggerSelector [Enum] R/W
Selects a trigger, then use the controls {TriggerMode, TriggerSoft-
ware, TriggerSource, TriggerActivation, TriggerOverlap,
TriggerDelay} to setup and read the trigger features.
TriggerSoftware [Command]
Triggers an image. Valid when TriggerSource = Software.
TriggerSource [Enum] R/W
Determines how an image frame is initiated within an acquisition stream.
Note

If TriggerMode = Off and TriggerSelector =
FrameStart, images triggered in FixedRate at
AcquisitionFrameRateAbs.
Off [Default] Any external trigger received before a high
FrameTriggerReady signal is ignored
PreviousFrame Any external trigger received before
FrameTriggerReady is latched and used to trigger
the next frame
FrameStart [Default] The trigger which starts each image
(when acquisition is running)
AcquisitionStart The trigger which starts the acquisition process
AcquisitionEnd The trigger which ends the acquisition process
AcquisitionRecord The trigger which initiates the sending of
AcquisitionFrameCount number of
recorded images from the camera on-board
memory to the host
Note

An acquisition stream must be started in order to
trigger/receive individual frames. For Freerun
and FixedRate the first frame is synchronized
to AcquisitionStart trigger.
Freerun [Default] Camera runs at maximum supported frame rate
depending on the exposure time and region of interest size
Line1 External trigger Line1
Line2 External trigger Line2
FixedRate Camera self-triggers at a fixed frame rate defined by
AcquisitionFrameRate
Software Software initiated image capture
