Optimizing performance
Image transfer with rolling shutter cameras
Alvium G1-500m/c, G1-1240, and G1-2050m/c
If acquisition is started and stopped in a short sequence, no image is transferred to
the host. The duration cannot be predicted, because it depends on various factors.
Frame rate jitter
Alvium G1-500m/c, G1-1240, and G1-2050m/c
Generally, some parameters can be changed during exposure without affecting the
timing. For models with ON Semiconductor AR sensors and rolling shutter sensors,
a different behavior must be considered for camera operation in freerun mode
without triggering:
Changing parameters during exposure leads to frame rate jitter. When parameters
are entered, the next frame starts only after readout and sensor reconfiguration
delay are finished. When the camera is run in
ExposureAuto mode, the actual
frame rate is less than the calculated value for the corresponding exposure time.
Consider frame rate jitter for your application, including a gap between
ExposureActive signals.
