DVC DVC-4000 - Continuous, overlapped, extended-exposure mode

20
Continuous, overlapped, extended-exposure mode
This mode is similar to the overlapped, electronic-shuttered exposure mode except that the electronic
shutter is not enabled and the exposure times are greater than one readout cycle (frame time). As a result,
readout frame rate will decrease as exposure time is increased, but the overlapping exposure and readout
provide the maximum frame rate for a given exposure time. This mode also offers much longer
integration times than overlapped, electronic-shuttered exposure mode.
Any further triggers while the camera is operating continuously are ignored. The camera will remain in
this continuous operation until disabled through software command. It can then be re-armed for another
trigger event.
Continuous, overlapped, extended exposure mode. Strobe pulse is disabled due to continuous nature of exposure
