In the PDP internal version of this mode, the microprocessor that controls the serial control
interface generates a periodic pulse with a user-defined "low" duration (TIL command) and
a user-defined "high" duration (TIH command).
In the PDI internal version of this mode, the microprocessor that controls the serial control
interface generates a one-shot pulse on the user’s command with a user-defined "low"
duration (TIL command) followed by a "high" state until the next command.
Binning: The binning mode of the camera is set via the BIN command. There are five valid
arguments to this command {11, 21, 22, 44, 88}. When one of these commands is issued by the
host-side software, an internal register is set to the appropriate value. The mode reverts to the
setting just prior to the binning command.

BIN 88 8 x 8 binning 174(H) x 130(V) 68f/sec
Slow scan: The slow-scan mode of the camera is set via the SLW command. There are four valid
arguments to this command {01, 02, 04, 08}. When one of these commands is issued by the host-
side software, the mode control bits are set as shown in the table for 2µsec. The mode control bits
then revert to the setting (1 x x x) just prior to the binning command.
