Notes:
The maximum value for Exposure Time varies depending on the value configured for the
Acquisition Frame Rate setting. Max. value for Exposure Time = ( 1 / Acquisition Frame Rate ) -
188 μs (8-bit) or 369 μs (10-/12-bit)
The actual exposure time will consist of the image sensor’s offset duration (13.7 μs) added to the
setting configured on the camera. When ExposureMode is set to Timed and the exposure time is
set to 1 μs, the actual exposure time will be as follows. 1 μs + 13.7 μs (offset duration of image
sensor) = 14.7 μs.
When ExposureMode is set to TriggerWidth, the exposure is slightly longer than the width of the
trigger signal. To achieve an exposure time of 14.7 μs and the exposure time offset is 13.7 μs, use
14.7 μs - 13.7 μs = 1 μs as the high or low time for the trigger signal.
