3.5.2.3 - External Exposure (NFT)
External Exposure combined with Non-Frame Transfer readout is available to all iXon3 cameras. This mode is
distinct from the triggering modes discussed previously in that the exposure period is fully controlled by the width of
the external trigger pulse. The exposure period starts on the positive edge and concludes on the negative edge. The
exposure is physically ended by shifting the Image area into the Storage area. The Storage area is then readout in the
normal manner.
