Setting Frames Per Trigger
The Frames Per Trigger field on the General tab is used to set the number of frames
per trigger you want to acquire.
• If you want your acquisition to be a specific number of frames per trigger, use the
default of 1 frame, or use the arrows to select the number of frames or type in the
number.
• If you want to acquire frames continuously, set the Frames Per Trigger to
infinite and then use the Stop Acquisition button to stop the acquisition, or do
manual triggering using the Triggering tab.
The number of frames that will be acquired when you start an acquisition depends on
what is set in the Frames Per Trigger field on the General tab and the Number of
Triggers field on the Triggering tab. For example, if you set Frames Per Trigger to 4
and Number of Triggers to 2, the total number of frames acquired will be 8.
