Electronic Flash Setting
This function is set when an electronic flash is used. This sets the output conditions for the signal for
synchronizing the measurement and the electronic flash timing.

Description
STEP - STGOUT
delay
[0] t
o 511
(1 count 30μs)
Set the waiting time from the time the STEP signal is input until the
electronic flash trigger output signal comes ON.
Delay Time = Count × 30μs + 90μs
The delay time depends on whether the STGOUT pulse polarity is
positive
or negative.
The displayed time is for the positive polarity.
Add 35μs
to the displayed time if the polarity is negative.
The delay time can be set in a range of ±10μs from the sett
ing value.
STGOUT width
1 to 63
[3]
(1 count 30μs)
Set the output time for the electron
ic flash trigger signal.
STGOUT polarity
• [Positive]
• Negative
Select the pulse polarity of the electronic flash trigger.
Positive polarity: Flashes synchronized with the timing of the
electronic
flash trigger output signal changing from OFF to ON.
Negative: Flashes when the strobe trigger output signal changes from ON
to OFF.
• Do not perform next camera image input processing before STGOUT signal output is completed. STGOUT signal
may not be output.
Perform camera image input processing after STGOUT signa
l ou
tput completion, or set the STEP-camera delay,
STEPSTGOUT delay and STGOUT pulse width so that the electronic flash operates synchronizing with the
exposure time.
• When you want the electronic flash to lite synchronously wi
th the exposure time, set the delay between STEP and
the camera or the delay between STEP and STGOUT, taking into consideration the response time of the external
strobe controller.
