SHUTTER GATING
Shutter gating is about the shutter being directly controlled
by TRIG1, TRIG2 or TRIG3. Exposure occurs for as long as
the signal is active.
Steps to follow to configure the camera properly to use the Shutter Gating:
1. In Record Settings, select the desired resolution
and maximum frame. The exposure Time is
limited to 1/Frame Rate; if longer exposures are
desired, you must reduce the frame rate.
IMPORTANT: If you select a frame rate lower than the maximum, the sensor may be set to a low
frame rate mode. This will limit the maximum achievable frame rate.
2. In Triggers/IO Settings, select Shutter Gating for
the desired input. With Invert unchecked, exposure will
start on the rising edge of the input.
Note: In this mode, Black Calibration can only be performed when a stable and repetitive trigger
is received by the camera. If a stable trigger source isn't available, set the mode to None in
Trigger/IO Settings, perform a Black Calibration, and then set the mode back to Shutter Gating.
