4.2.5.3.1 Define the Cine Advanced Options
STEP-BY-STEP PROCEDURE
1.
Click the Live Control Panel Tab.
2.
Click on Advanced Settings.
3.
Enable, check, Exposure in PIV Mode.
This feature has been designed for use in PIV (Particle Imaging Velocimetry) applications. When
enabled the Phantom v-series cameras are instructed to reduce the Frame Straddle Time to an
interval of 1.5µs. For a Phantom v710, v640, v310, v210 or v12 the Frame Straddle time will be
reduced to 300 nano-seconds.
4.
Enable, check, Trigger Delay.
This feature allows end-users to add a delay between the trigger command, (via Phantom
Camera Control application, or hardware), and the actual recording into the camera's image
buffer DRAM. After the trigger signal is detected, the Phantom camera will loop-record into DRAM
the specified number of frames. The effect of this is a delay, because the frames that will actually
be kept into the camera's image buffer will be the images recorded after this delay.
5.
Enter the Trigger Delay value in the Trigger Delay entry window to the right of Trigger Delay
enable box. The Trigger Delay value is entered as the number of pictures or images will be
generated before applying the trigger signal.
