Camera Performance and Features

High Dynamic Range Mode
In High Dynamic Range Mode, the TDI Stages feature set to 2, each line uses a different exposure
time; the short and long exposures are combined as 1 output 1 line, to see details in bright and
dark areas at the same.
Multi-Row Sensor Output Mode
In Multi-Row Sensor Output Mode, two sensor rows are synchronized and output per input line
trigger. This enables processing of the synchronized image rows by the host system. The output
image frame will consist of alternating sensor rows starting with row one.

Acquiring Images: Triggering the Camera
Linea Lite GigE line exposures are initiated by a trigger event. The Linea Lite can acquire images
using its own internal trigger (free-running mode) or using an external trigger (EXSYNC) with
several options for the trigger source. A trigger is either the camera's programmable internal clock
used in free running mode, an external input used for synchronizing exposures to external triggers,
or a programmed function call message by the controlling computer. These triggering modes are
described below.
•
Free running
—
Line or Frame
= Off): The Linea Lite GigE free-running mode
has programmable internal timers for line rate/exposure period and frame rates. Line rate and
frame rates are independent. Frame free running simply means acquire all lines.
•
External trigger
=On): Exposures are controlled by an external or internal
trigger signal where the specific input line or source is selected by the
Trigger Source
feature.
External signal inputs have a time programmable debounce circuit.
•
Virtual frames
: For any exposure type the virtual frame (that is, the number of exposure lines
).
feature determines if the cameras uses free-running mode (
TriggerMode
= Off)
or an external trigger (
feature specifies the line rate, in Hz. The maximum
line rate is determined by the
feature. The Internal Acquisition FPS feature returns
the frames per second (FPS) for the specified Acquisition Line Rate.
