9.2.2 End of exposure to first packet on the bus
After the exposure, the CCD or CMOS-
sensor is read out; some data is written
into the FRAME_BUFFER before being
transmitted to the bus.
The time from the end of exposure to the
start of transport on the bus is:
500µs ± 62.5µs
This time jitters with the cycle time of the
bus (125µs).

9.3 Multi-Shot
Setting “MultiShot” and entering a quantity of images in Count_Number in the 61Ch register
enables the camera to record a specified number of images.
The number is indicated in bits 16 to 31. If the camera is put into Iso_Enable mode (ISO_Enable
/ Free-Run), this flag is ignored and deleted automatically once all the images have been
recorded.
If MultiShot mode is activated and the images have not yet all been captured, it can be quit by
resetting the flag. The same can be achieved by setting the number of images to “0”.
