6. Functions and Operations
Apart from the standard continuous operation, the CV-A50/60 features three external
asynchronous trigger modes (edge pre-select, pulse width controlled and start/stop) and a
special frame-delay readout mode. Long integration time mode is also supported.

6.1. Basic functions
Some of the primary camera functions need a general introduction before the operation modes
are described. The list below shows the primary functions from the command list.

The shutter SM can be set to normal (SM=0), where the exposure time is selected from 8 fixed
step with the command SH, or programmable exposure (SM=1). Here the command PE allows up
to 1023 steps with 1 period resolution (64 µs) for edge pre-select mode. For normal modes PE
can be up to 312 for CCIR and 262 for EIA.
The scanning format SC can be selected between interlaced and non-interlaced sync signals.
Further it is possible to select 1/2 and 1/3 partial scanning. It is not supported for the camera.

Further it is possible to select 1/2 and 1/3 partial scanning. It is not supported for the camera.
The accumulation FR can be field or frame. Fig. 9. show details for frame and field
accumulation with shutter OFF, (left(, and shutter on, (right).
The accumulation in all trigger modes is H synchronous. The exposure will start at the first HD
pulse after the trigger falling edge. Fig. 8. shows the details. In all triggered shutter modes, the
shortest shutter time is limited to ≥1.5 H or 1/10,000. In trigger modes, the exposure time is not
limited to the readout time. It can be longer.
