One-shot
The camera can record an image by setting the one-shot bit in the 61Ch regis-
ter. This bit is automatically cleared after the image is captured. If the camera
is placed in ISO_Enable mode (see Chapter ISO_Enable / free-run on page 221),
this flag is ignored.
If one-shot mode is combined with the external trigger, the one-shot com-
mand is used to arm it. The following screenshot shows the sequence of com-
mands needed to put the camera into this mode. It enables the camera to grab
exactly one image with an external trigger edge.
If there is no trigger impulse after the camera has been armed, one-shot can be
cancelled by clearing the bit.
