Using Cycling Presets with Output Controls
The following graphic shows a Cycling Preset function setup where a two stage setup performs
exposures of different length and additionally provides an output pulse at the start of each
exposure.
As an example, by using both output lines, this setup can trigger two separate light strobes of
different wavelengths. This dual exposure sequence example is controlled by a single external
trigger.
