4.2.6 Using Inputs and Outputs
Depending on the model, DCx Cameras have one or more digital inputs and outputs designed for
different purposes.
Input/output control: Here, you will find functions for setting the DCxCamera's I/Os and for using
the trigger and flash modes.
4.2.6.1 Input/Output Control
With these functions you can use the camera's digital in-/outputs for trigger and flash control.
Enables the digital input for trigger operation or returns the
applied signal level.
Sets the digital output for flash control or a static output
level.
Sets the delay and power-on time of the flash output.
Sets the trigger signal delay time.
Determines the delay and power-on times of the flash
output to obtain a global shutter effect when using rolling
shutter sensors.
Simulates a trigger signal in hardware trigger mode.
With these commands you can activate additional functions or use GPIOs on some DCx Cameras.
Sets the additional digital outputs (GPIO).
Defines each port as a digital input or output (GPIO).
Toggles the color of the status LED for DCU22x and
DCC1240x cameras.
