Basic Operation and Features
Basler A500k Series 3-19
PRELIMINARY
3.3.3.3 ExSync, Programmable Mode with Synchronous Timing 1
Figure 3-17: ExSync, Programmable Mode - Exposure Start and Stop when Frame Valid is High
If the exposure starts and ends while Frame Valid is high (see Table for values n to z):
• The actual start of exposure can be x µs later than the rise of the ExSync signal.
• Actual length of exposure time = n - y µs ... n + z µs
The actual length of exposure time can jitter by 1 µs and it can only occur in multiples of w
µs.
