Step 2: Synchronize
Synchronization Overview
Synchronization of the LVS-7500 External System takes the image and electronically creates a repeating pattern
for locking. This process emulates the effect generated by a traditional Photo Optic trigger. The principal is
simple enough to understand with some pictorial illustrations. The LVS-7500 External System takes the image
and averages all pixels going across in rows, then performs the same averaging for all pixels going down in
columns (see example below).
If we were to average all the pixels going across in rows, it would look like a strip added to the right of the picture
below.
