9.1.2.6.1 Area scan cameras
"Mode 1"
In this mode, there is no change in the "Digital I/O" interface necessary.
Now, please follow these steps to run Mode 1 with mvHYPERION:
1. In "Image Setting -> Camera -> TriggerControls -> Frame Start" set "TriggerMode" to "On".
2. Choose the "TriggerSource" input (normally "Trigger-In").
3. Choose the "TriggerActivation" according to the application (e.g. "FallingEdge", "RisingEdge", etc.).
In order to that the camera will send an image stream continuously and the next image after a trigger event will be
acquired.
"Mode 2"
In this mode, there is no setup in "TriggerControls" necessary ("TriggerMode" = "Off").
Now, please follow these steps to run Mode 2 with mvHYPERION:
1. In "Digital I/O" set "ControlMode" to "PulseStartConfiguration".
2. Now, set the wanted mode of the used CameraLink signal (normally "DigitalOutputs -> CC1"), which is used
for triggering "TriggerSource" input (normally "Trigger-In"):
(a) "SinglePulse": On the basis of "PulseStartConfiguration" a signal is created and given to the camera for
triggering. Delay time and pulse width can be defined.
(b) "PassThrough": The signal of the chosen input will be negated in timing and pulse width or not passed
to the camera.
3. In "PulseStartConfiguration" set the PulseStartTrigger to "DigitalSignal":
(a) Set "DigitalSignal" to the wished input (normally: "Trigger-In").
(b) If the signal happens too fast, you can divide the trigger frequency with the "TriggerDivider".
(c) "TriggerMoment" shows the starting time with falling or rising edge.
Now, after a external trigger signal on the trigger input of the frame grabber, a trigger signal is generated on the
CameraLink connection ("CC1") and passed to the camera. In order to that, the camera acquires an image and
sends it to the frame grabber. You do not need a trigger on the frame grabber for the image acquisition given that
the frame grabber waits for the next image.
