AM-800CL / AB-800CL- 36 -7.8. Edge-dump mode (so-called RCT)Until the trigger is input, the camera operates continuously and the video signal for theauto-iris lens is output. At this moment, the video signal, FVAL and LVAL are output butDVAL is not output. When the trigger is input, the fast dump is activated to read outthe electronic charge very quickly, after which the accumulation and the readout areperformed. This fast dump period is 17.19ms. When the accumulated signal against thetrigger is read out, FVAL , LVAL and DVAL are output too.The frame rate for full pixels readout is;AM-800CL is “17.0263fps + Fast dump period + Exposure time”AB-800CL is “8.5fps + Fast dump period + Exposure time”Primary settings to use this modeAcquisition controlAcquisition frame rate: AR= 1~42964Exposure mode: EM=1 (Timed)Auto mode: ASC=1 (Continuous)Trigger dump: TD=1(Dump ON)Note:The AM-800CL and AB-800CL gives priority to the frame rate over the exposuretime. If the exposure time is set at longer than 58.73ms (1 frame period), the framerate must be increased so that it is longer than the exposure time.Minimum interval of the trigger pulseReadout mode FULL 2/3 AOI 1/2 AOI 1/4 AOI 1/8 AOIMinimum frame line 2772 2261 2003 1616 1424Fig.34 Trigger dump mode timingTriggerCCD ExposureEENXEENFVALDVAL17.19ms4.5L ~ 5.5L
