9.11.5 Acquisition Trigger Wait Signal (Standard Mode
Only)
As you are acquiring frames, the camera automatically monitors the acquisition start trigger status
and supplies a signal that indicates the current status. The Acquisition Trigger Wait signal will go
high whenever the camera enters a "waiting for acquisition start trigger" status. The signal will go
low when an external acquisition start trigger (ExASTrig) signal is applied to the camera and the
camera exits the "waiting for acquisition start trigger status". The signal will go high again when the
camera again enters a "waiting for acquisition trigger" status and it is safe to apply the next
acquisition start trigger signal.
If you base your use of the ExASTrig signal on the state of the acquisition trigger wait signal, you
can avoid "acquisition start overtriggering", i.e., applying an acquisition start trigger signal to the
camera when it is not in a "waiting for acquisition start trigger" acquisition status. If you do apply an
acquisition start trigger signal to the camera when it is not ready to receive the signal, it will be
ignored and an acquisition start overtrigger event will be reported.
Figure 66 illustrates the Acquisition Trigger Wait signal with the Acquisition Frame Count parameter
set to 3 and with exposure and readout overlapped. The figure assumes that the trigger mode for
the frame start trigger is set to off, so the camera is internally generating frame start trigger signals.
The acquisition trigger wait signal is only available when the image acquisition
control is set to standard mode.
For more information about image acquisition control and setting the mode, see
Section 9.1 on page 103.
