Exposure time (shutter) and offset
The exposure (shutter) time for continuous mode and Trigger_Mode_0 is
based on the following formula:
Shutter register value x time base + offset
The register value is the value set in the corresponding IIDC 1.31 register
(SHUTTER [81Ch]). This number is in the range between 1 and 4095.
The shutter register value is multiplied by the time base register value (see
Table 134: Time base ID on page 302). The default value here is set to 20 µs.
A camera-specific offset is also added to this value. It is different for the
camera models:
Exposure time offset
Minimum exposure time
Camera model Exposure time offset
Stingray F-033 27 µs
Stingray F-046 27 µs
Stingray F-080 45 µs
Stingray F-125 21 µs
Stingray F-145 70 µs
Stingray F-146 35 µs
Stingray F-201 44 µs
Stingray F-504 38 µs
