Partial Scan—Window ROI (cropping) 
Partial Scan (vertical cropping) 
The Partial Scan mode, also know as vertical cropping, reduces the number of video lines grabbed for a frame. By 
not scanning the full vertical area of the sensor, the maximum possible acquisition frame rate is proportionately 
increased. As an extreme example, the HM640 scanning a 32 line frame (with an appropriately short integration 
time), exposed around 1830 fps. A table of frame rates vs. sample vertical cropping values follows.
