Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting for Bigeye G cameras only (IOD mode)
If the camera can be detected but no images can be grabbed:
Verify the camera operation mode: Make sure the camera operates in
continuous mode, and not in IOD mode.
General description:
• Continuous mode: The camera generates the images with a constant
exposure time autonomously.
• Image on Demand (IOD): the camera produces no image until a trigger
impulse is generated.

ExposureAuto/ExposureMode Trigger mode Description
Continuous Off/Manual Freerun Camera generates images with a con-
stant exposure time autonomously. The
exposure time cannot be adjusted.
Continuous Off/Manual LineX/SyncInX Camera waits for an impulse at the
selected trigger input pin to start a
continuous image output.
IOD Off/Manual Freerun Camera produces images autonomously.
The exposure time can be adjusted.
IOD Off/Manual LineX/SyncInX Camera produces a single image for
every impulse at the selected trigger
input pin. The exposure time is defined
by ExposureTimeAbs/ExposureValue.
IOD Other/External LineX/SyncInX Camera produces a single image for
every impulse at the selected trigger
input pin. The pulse width defines the
exposure time.
