Fig. 225: Flash

•Flash (OptoCoupled)
Here, you select which line is used for the flash (model-dependent).

•Invert signal
Enables or disables whether the signal is inverted. The function is not available when "Off (not driven)" is selected.

•Off (not driven)
No flash is used.

•Constant state (UserOutput0)
The flash is in a constant state, i.e. it is controlled by "UserOutput0". Via the switch on the right, flash is switched on and off independently of e.g. the exposure time. The settings for start delay, end delay or duration are inactive.

•Exposure active
The flash behaves dynamically to the exposure time. The settings for start delay, end delay or duration are additionally used to control the flash signal.

•Global flash window
For rolling shutter sensors, you can switch between the exposure time and the global flash window.

•Start delay
You can set a start delay for the flash, i.e. after the exposure is started, the flash is delayed by the set time. Negative values are also possible, so that the flash can be enabled before the exposure starts.

•End delay
You can set an end delay for the flash, so that the flash is disabled e.g. already before the end of the exposure.

•Duration
Here, you specify how long the flash signal should be active. A value of 0 means that no flash signal is generated.
