3.4.2.7.6 Trigger
This tab provides the settings for triggered image capture with your DCx camera (see also Digital in-/output (trigger/
flash) ).
Input
Status
If you select this check box, the signal level applied at the camera's trigger input is polled and displayed.
Trigger delay (frame rate)
Select this check box to set a delay between the arrival of a software or hardware trigger signal and the start of
exposure.
Mode
With these radio buttons, you choose which trigger mode you want to activate in the camera:
Software
The camera is running in software trigger mode without a signal applied. The images are captured continuously.
Falling edge
The camera captures an image on the falling edge of the signal applied to the trigger input.
Rising edge
The camera captures an image on the rising edge of the signal applied to the trigger input.
Trigger timeout [ms]
Specifies a timeout for the trigger mode. If the camera does not receive a trigger signal within this time, a timeout
message is transmitted and the transmission error counter is incremented.
Debounce
This function is not relevant for DCx cameras.
Camera
Global start (trigger mode)
If you select this check box, all rows of a rolling shutter sensor are exposed simultaneously. Activating Global
start only makes sense when using a flash. This function is not supported by all models.
