Parameters and commands

Bonito Technical Manual V2.3.0

• Activates Image on demand mode (IOD) with exposure timer (weight = 2)

• Deactivates PIV mode (weight = 0)

• Activates Permanent exposure mode (weight = 20)

M=2A

(0x2A = 0b101010. This value is not recommended since bit #3 is set to 1 here,

even though it is not used by the parameter.)

Sets the bit field to „- - 1 0 - 0 1 0“

• Activates Image on demand mode (IOD) with exposure timer (weight = 2)

• Deactivates PIV mode (weight = 0)

• Activates Permanent exposure mode (weight = 20)

Exposure timing mode (bit group e)

The exposure timing mode allows to switch between the continuous mode and

three different IOD modes.

Continuous mode

Bit group: e

Value: 0

The camera outputs images as fast as possible in free-running mode.

The gap between two images is only one line, the total frame duration takes

FDmin

. The exposure time is nearly equal to this inherent minimal frame dura-

tion.

Image on demand mode (IOD)

Bit group: e

Value: 1

The exposure is triggered by an external signal.

Use parameter T to select the signal source. A rising edge starts exposure syn-

chronizing to the line after the next line.
