Notes specific to this mode
1 The user initiates the reset-&-integration cycle by taking the ElectShutter Camera Input high
2 The user terminates integration by taking the ElectShutter Camera Input low
3 ElectShutter will not be recognized by the camera until a time "t
x2p
" after ExSync is brought low
4 If ElectShutter is brought high earlier than constrained above, the camera will interpret this as ElectShutter
going high "t
x2p
" after ExSync went high
5 Any software command setting integration time is overridden by ElectShutter Camera Input
6 If ElectShutter is still high when ExSync is taken low to initiate the next readout cycle, then integration is
immediately terminated
7 The user can read data from the CAM/CMOS - 2K.LS while LineValid is high as shown above.
Figure 3.4.4 -- Mode 4: ExSync Synchronization and Electronic Shutter Control
...this mode gives the user full asynchronous hardware control over start and end of integration
with the "ElectShutter" Camera Input.
