1) Fra eTriggerWait
The user can check the ca era condition (ca era exposure and i age output processing by the trigger signal with
this Fra eTriggerWait signal).
This signal is LOW for the period fro the trigger input signal to the i age output.
a) High status (3.3V): No processing by the trigger signal. The ca era accepts the trigger signal.
b) Low status (0V): The ca era is exposed and the i age output processes by the trigger signal.
The ca era default setting is the input trigger signal is INVALID while at the low status of this signal. When the
exposure starts while the i age output by the next trigger signal, please change the ca era setting (Device code:
00H, Co and No. :13H) to accept the trigger signal while the i age outputs.
The noise appears on the i age when the exposure begins while the i age is output. The noise appears on the
i age when the start exposure while the i age is output. In this case, please change the “H reset” for the exposure
start ode (Device code: 00H, Co and No. : 12H) to change the exposure start point to the next HD ti ing.
2) UserOutput
The status of the UserOutput signal can change with the “UserOutputValue”.
a) High status (3.3V)
b) Low status (0V).
3) ExposureActive
The user can check the exposure ti e with the ExposureActive signal.
a) High status (3.3V): The ca era is exposing
b) Low status (0V): The ca era is not exposed
4) TriggerAuxiliary
The TriggerAuxiliary signal is the input trigger signal.
5) TriggerInternal
The TriggerInternal signal is the input trigger signal with the trigger delay ti e.
6) SensorReadOut
The SensorReadOut signal is the FVAL signal, which is the i age output period of the ti e.
7) StrobeSignal
The StrobeSignal signal is the strobe control signal.

3.2 Pulse Width Trigger Mode
In this trigger ode with positive polarity, the ca era exposure starts at the rising edge of the trigger pulse and
stops at the falling edge of the trigger pulse. Therefore, if positive polarity exposure is selected, the exposure periods
are the high states of the trigger pulse.
3.2.1 Ti ing
Note 1: The video output is going to be V reset by the next internal HD signal i ediately after the exposure is finished.
The exposure ti e is set by the pulse width of the trigger signal.
Note 2: The FVAL signal does not output when the exposure by the trigger signal does not exist.

3.4 Edge Preset Trigger Mode (Trigger Input While the I age Is Out)
In this trigger ode, the ca era exposure starts at the rising edge of the trigger pulse.
If trigger signal input is required while the image is out, then it is necessary to disable the trigger signal
mask with the communication.
To avoid generating additional noise on the image, it is necessary to set the “H reset” at the exposure start
mode.

The data length is dependent on each read co and sent.
The data length is defined as “00H” when sending the write co and.
The data length of error response is defined as “00H”.
Sending fra e:
The data length is 1 byte du y data when sending the read co and, and that data is
not referenced.
The data length is dependent on each “write co and” sent.
