JAI Camera I/O Signals
On JAI camera models AT200-GE and AM-800GE, the camera software setup in Vision Program Manager (VPM) pro-
vides a camera trigger delay debounce setting, but no holdoff debounce setting. VPM also does not provide a strobe trig-
ger pulse width setting. The strobe trigger pulse width coincides with the camera shutter speed open time setting so that it
turns on when the exposure starts (shutter opens) and turns off when the exposure ends (shutter closes). Refer to “Trigger
Events” and “Strobe Pulse Length” in the Impact Reference Guide (843-0093) for more details.
