Outputs

Output features are configured by software. Any signal can be placed on any
output.

The main features of output signals are described below:

Note

Switching trigger delay to ON also switches external
Trigger_Mode_0 to ON.

This feature works with external Trigger_Mode_0 only.

Note

For a general description of the outputs and warnings see
the Hardware Installation Guide, Chapter Guppy PRO out-
put description.

Signal

Description

IntEna (Integration Enable) signal

This signal displays the time in which exposure was made. By
using a register this output can be delayed by up to 1.05 sec-
onds.

Fval (Frame valid) signal

This feature signals readout from the sensor. This signal Fval
follows IntEna.

Busy signal

This signal appears when:

the exposure is being made or

the sensor is being read out or

data transmission is active.

The camera is busy.

PulseWidthMod (pulse-width modu-
lation) signal

Each output has pulse-width modulation (PWM) capabilities,
which can be used for motorized speed control or autofocus
control. See Chapter

Pulse-width modulation

on page 85ff.

WaitingForTrigger signal

This signal is available and useful for the outputs in Trigger
Edge Mode
. (In level mode it is available but useless, because
exposure time is unknown. (Signal always =0))

In edge mode it is useful to know if the camera can accept a
new trigger (without overtriggering).
