TriggerDelay [Float] R/W
Start-of-image can be delayed to begin some time after a trigger event is
received by the camera. This feature is valid only when TriggerSource is
set to external trigger (i.e. Line1, Line2). This control is a common trigger
to sync with a strobe lighting source, which will inherently have some fixed
setup time.
TriggerMode [Enum] R/W
Enables or disables trigger set in TriggerSelector.
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.
Range:[0 – Camera dependent] Default: 0 Units: µs
Off Trigger disabled
On [Default] Trigger enabled
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 recorded
images from the camera on-board memory to the
host
