EL-2800M-USB / EL-2800C-USB- 27 -7. Operating modes7.1. Acquisition control7.1.1 Acqusition modeIn the EL-2800M-USB and EL-2800C-USB, the following three acquisition modes are available.Single frame : One frame can be output by AcqusitionStart commandMulti frames : The number of frames which is specified in Acquistion Frame Count, areoutput by AcquisitionStart commandContinuous : Images are continuously output by AcquisitionStart command untilAcqusitionStop command is input.7.1.1.1 Single FrameIn single frame mode, executing the AcquisitionStart command causes one frame to be captured.After one frame is captured, this operation is automatically stopped.In order to restart the capture, it is necessary to input the AcquisitionStart command again. BlockIDis not reset until AcquisitionStop is input and is incremented when the AcquisitionStart command iscalled.In the case of PIV operation, 2 frames are captured instead of one frame.◆ Normal single frame operation1) AcquisitionStart command is input2) AcquisitionActive becomes “TRUE” (accepts capture)3) 1 frame is output4) AcquisitionActive becomes “FALSE” (stop capturing)◆ Forcing acquisition to stopWhile AcquisitionActive is “TRUE”, if AcquisitionStop or AcquisitionAbort isinitiated, AcquisitionActive becomes “FALSE” (stop capturing).However, if AcqusitionStop command is initiated during image output period,AcqusitionActive becomes “FALSE” (stop capturing) after image output is completed.
