Balluff - BVS CA-GT Technical Documentation
|
The sensor uses a global shutter, i.e. light exposure takes place on all pixels in parallel, although subsequent readout is sequential.

The following trigger modes are available:
Setting (GenICam) | Mode / Setting (obsolete "Device Specific") | Description |
"TriggerSelector = FrameStart" "TriggerMode = Off" | Continuous | Free running, no external trigger signal needed. |
"TriggerSelector = FrameStart" "TriggerMode = On" "TriggerSource = Software" "ExposureMode = Timed" To trigger one frame execute the TriggerSoftware@i command then. | OnDemand | Image acquisition triggered by command (software trigger). |
"TriggerSelector = AcquisitionActive" "TriggerMode = On" "TriggerSource = <desired Line>" "TriggerActivation = LevelLow" "ExposureMode = Timed" | OnLowLevel | Start an exposure of a frame as long as the trigger input is below the trigger threshold. (No FrameTrigger!) |
"TriggerSelector = AcquisitionActive" "TriggerMode = On" "TriggerSource = <desired Line>" "TriggerActivation = LevelHigh" "ExposureMode = Timed" | OnHighLevel | Start an exposure of a frame as long as the trigger input is above the trigger threshold. (No FrameTrigger!) |
"TriggerSelector = FrameStart" "TriggerMode = On" "TriggerSource = <desired Line>" "TriggerActivation = FallingEdge" "ExposureMode = Timed" | OnFallingEdge | Each falling edge of trigger signal acquires one image. |
"TriggerSelector = FrameStart" "TriggerMode = On" "TriggerSource = <desired Line>" "TriggerActivation = RisingEdge" "ExposureMode = Timed" | OnRisingEdge | Each rising edge of trigger signal acquires one image. |
"TriggerSelector = FrameStart" "TriggerMode = On" "TriggerSource = <desired Line>" "TriggerActivation = AnyEdge" "ExposureMode = Timed" | OnAnyEdge | Start the exposure of a frame when the trigger input level changes from high to low or from low to high. |
